I lie awake on this phone call, she's dreaming of better days
Flowers lie on the counter, remind her of better days
She sends a prayer up to Jesus
And she asks him for his strength
And the night will go on bleeding
Was it faith that paid the rent?
And I know youre barely listening
I know youre barely listening
I know youre barely listening
Now I know youre
.
I know youre barely listening
I know youre barely listening
I know youre barely listening
Now I know youre .
Standing here in a doorway with a candle and a gun
The light tears through open windows
For now the day has won
[Repeat chorus]
Like a child on her way here
You just smile and run the other way
And faith wont find you a reason
It just smiles and runs the other way
And It just smiles .
It just smiles and runs the other way
It just smiles .
It just smiles and then runs the other way
(scat singing)
Its not worth waiting
[Repeat chorus]
you can't shape love with a hammer,
and you can't shape love with a will,
what horror lies in knowing there's no faith that chaos can't kill
