歌曲 | Prayer Without Words |
歌手 | Mary Gauthier |
专辑 | Mercy Now |
作曲 : Damphier, Gauthier | |
Packing vagabond visions and a dream drenched hunger for a home | |
Swaddled in road dirt, blood stained blankets and poems | |
On a stormy suitcase | |
Sunday, I awakened to the scream of the birds | |
They held their high notes and offered prayer without words | |
Sinking in asphalt, speechlessness and what coulda been | |
Surrounded by strangers, scarred stars, stoned broken men | |
Riding the narcotic night 'til she swerved and smashed into the curb | |
Morning spilled from the wreckage and offered prayer without words | |
Chains on the mast pull the past, nothin' lasts but nothin' ever ends | |
I leave town, break new ground, break down, leave town again | |
Trapped in the circle, anchored to the weight of the world | |
Under shooting stars that sink the skies and offer prayer without words | |
Justice rides with jaundiced eyes, jaded judges bleed the broken bench | |
Liberty's a homicide, she been flogged to death | |
With money's monkey wrench | |
Desperado apostates set fire to every holy word we've heard | |
Silence billows from the burning books and offers prayer without words | |
Surrender, that sweet cleaning girl | |
She folds white flags in | |
Hallelujah | |
SquareShe can't remember where she's been one day | |
I'm gonna join her there | |
Unpack my battered traveling case | |
Hang out a sign that says, ' | |
Do Not Disturb' | |
Dissolve into the dream and sleep that offers prayer without words |
