Has been
Has been
Has been
Has been
What was
Will be again
What was will be again
Don't throw yourself away
On you knees
Pray with me
We pray bad air never taints our lungs
We pray ugly things stay out of sight
We pray our babies grow up right
We pray someone else will raise them
We pray the Earth yields enough to eat
We pray we get bumped up to a first-class seat
We pray for rain and snow and sun
We pray for weekends filled with fun
We pray for peace, prepared for war
We pray it's enough, but we still want more
We pray for love, but we teach hate
We pray for a break in a cold, cold case
We pray to our Mother of Divine Secrets
Hidden deep in our hearts
And Our Father of Things Unsaid
Unspoken yet innately known
We pray for the meaningless, uneventful, and dull
We pray for simple days and quiet nights
With occasional moments of uncommon brilliance
With occasional moments of uncommon brilliance
Has been
Has been
Has been
Has been
What was
Will be again
What was will be again
Don't throw yourself away
