lyrics

Throw me a prayer.
Terror works in a terrible way.
I don't share your faith for final rest well beyond this place.

Curse this forsaken ground.
Old and silent, young and loud.

I swallowed a lie.
Baptized in fire and exploding light.
My fever broke.
In Heaven above and Hell below.

Take my weary hand.
They'll call us back to the promise land.

But, I'm not sure he's ever coming down.
Why don't you take a good look around.
There's no defense for this awful sound, and after all, this is Babylon.

I ain't the holy crowd.
Everyone needs to settle down.
You can't forget your doubt, but that gets lost on the scenic route.

A high and lonesome call.
A quiet voice in a sacred song.
