I lie awake on this phone call just dreaming of better days 

Flowers lie on the counter, reminder of better days 



She says a prayer to Jesus 

And she asks him for his strength 

And the night will go on bleeding 

Was it faith that paid the rent? 



* I know you?re barely listening 

I know you?re barely listening 

I know you?re barely listening 

Now I know you?re?. 

I know you?re barely listening 

I know you?re barely listening 

I know you?re barely listening 

Now I know you?re?. 



Standing here in the doorway with a candle and a gun 

The lights you threw open windows 

For now the day has won 



[Repeat *]



Like a child on her way here 

You just smile and run the other way 

And faith won?t find me a reason 

It just smiles and runs the other way 

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) 

It?s not worth waiting 



[Repeat *]



You question love with a camera 

And you?re catching love with a will 

Well heart lies in loneliness 

Now fight the past can kill
