My Prayer They Taper
from The Cloud On The Altar by Tendon Levey
lyrics
Where is this, where is this outside
That I′ve got no tear stain after
On my wound is the kiss of God
And the cup is in the skull cave
Am I clueless here?
Am I cursed in my spirit?
Where I walk, where I walk outside
There's a kid who is darkening younger
I wait the season out
It only takes hopeful wishing
That I could live alive
Not today
Not today
Where I walk, where I walk outside
On the clothes in the stomach there′s a static
If I took my stingers here
I would be the dumbest to pray
My prayer, my prayer tapered
My prayer, my prayer tapered
Where I walk, where I walk in mind
Black currants dangle long-lastingly
That I′ve got no tear stain after
On my wound is the kiss of God
And the cup is in the skull cave
Am I clueless here?
Am I cursed in my spirit?
Where I walk, where I walk outside
There's a kid who is darkening younger
I wait the season out
It only takes hopeful wishing
That I could live alive
Not today
Not today
Where I walk, where I walk outside
On the clothes in the stomach there′s a static
If I took my stingers here
I would be the dumbest to pray
My prayer, my prayer tapered
My prayer, my prayer tapered
Where I walk, where I walk in mind
Black currants dangle long-lastingly
