Lyrics Prayer for a Dying - Goatsnake

Prayer for a Dying

Oh the light it comes a creep
And the night it leaves
It’s the end of the dawn
Come the morning bury me
Keep my candles
A burn into the dawn
The blues and city shits
Open the door let’s it in
Destroys my faculties
Blinds me to my knee
As the darkness covers me
I begin to dream
Of visions that I long
Yeah you got to rock the roll
Set your fancies
A chance yet to be free again
In my system running strong
Shinning sins and setting suns
On my back like a hounding bitch dog
Lay in the shadows and pray for a dying
I reach for the arms
But I can’t catch my faith
I land on the floor and crawl
On my skin
Lay in the shadows and pray for a dying.
