Lyrics for Prayers for Rain
You shatter me Your grip on me A hold on me, so dull it kills You stifle me Infectious sense of hopelessness And prayers for rain 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 You fracture me Your hands on me A touch so plain, so stale it kills You strangle me Entangle me in hopelessness And prayers for rain 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 You fracture me Your hands on me A touch so plain, so stale it kills You strangle me Entangle me in hopelessness And prayers for rain Prayers for rain Prayers for rain Prayers for rain
