Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You shatter me, your grip on me
A hold on me so dull it kills
Stifle me
Infectious sense of hopelessness and prayers for rain
[Verse 2]
I suffocate, I breathe in dirt
And nowhere shines but desolate
And drab the hours all spent on killing time again
All waiting for the rain
[Chorus]
You fracture me, your hands on me
Touch so plain, so stale it kills
Strangle me
Entangle me in hopelessness and prayers for rain
[Verse 3]
I deteriorate, I live in dirt
And nowhere glows but drearily
And tired the hours, all spent on killing time again
All waiting for the rain
[Chorus]
You fracture me, your hands on me
Touch so plain, so stale it kills
You strangle me
Entangle me in hopelessness and prayers for rain
[Outro]
Prayers for rain
Prayers for rain
Prayers for rain
