From the recording City Life
Lyrics
Say it another way
I can’t keep them away
Call the basement down
Lift then shake around
Blow the candles out
Hear them scream and shout
Smile at the camera eye
Make them wonder why
Stay in the hallway, everybody knows
That there’s nothing behind but the usual foes
Nothing that feels right, nothing to close
Thoughts and prayers…
Thoughts and prayers…
Can you keep it down?
Cameras press in around
Hand us a paper crown
The latest weeknight renown
Stand in the room where nobody goes
Fall about the room down in Mexico
The thing you want is the thing you chose
Thoughts and prayers…
Thoughts and prayers…
The neon lights flash from side to side
And the cracks of sound rush in like the tide
Darkness reigns where darkness rides
Thoughts and prayers…
Thoughts and prayers…
Thoughts and prayers…
Thoughts and prayers…
