All My Prayers

(album: Diary Of A Hollow Horse - 1989)

There's a lot in life I want to see
There's a lot in life I want to believe
So I can make some sense of this imagery

There's a lot in life I know I need
There's a lot in life I want to redeem
So I can shake this feeling of in a dream

I don't believe that all my prayers
Just disappear into thin air
I can't afford myself that vanity
I know I can't afford
In this world take my place
In this world take my place
Take my place

Everybody's talking over my head
Everybody's falling over themselves
All trying to make some sense of this imagery
Everybody gets a hand on the wheel
Everybody's going around and around
All trying to shake this feeling of in a dream

I don't believe that all my prayers
Just disappear into thin air
I can't afford myself that vanity
I know I can't afford
In this world take my place
In this world take my place
Take my place

There's a lot in life we've got to respect
There's a lot in life we've got to protect
Everybody's got a second chance
Shake that feeling, shake that feeling
Take my place
