lyrics

I prayed so hard I thought I heard your call, but I lied when I got to "most of all." So in circles, I, in circles prayed in circles again like an age 22 record at its end.
I prayed so long while I drove so far, pretend to be on roads to play guitar. On highways, I'm reaching out through the windshield of my car for a vision in the fields or in the marsh.
I watched you take your shovel to my yard. You planted all new trees inside my heart. I baked forbidden fruit into a pie and called it art and ate it as the sky revealed the dark.
And though the last lights off the black west went, in the night I'd swear that I was heaven sent. The morning came, it hurt to wake and I could hardly tell if I'm called Martin, Roy, or Uriel.

I played along while you rewrote parts, and the song you wrote contained the chords I lost. When I tried to put them back in place, you laid me on the cross and let me up when I had learned.
Confused I left without regret and knowing you can't learn If you forget, so I filled the blank with "what you will" and try to make it true and offer all my daily pains to you.

I didn't think that you would sit around and let me go. I couldn't sink cause the water is denser than the oil. I held my tongue when they offered you up and they said your name. I played along with the chords that you rewrote but they sound the damn same.
