Pray

from Toluca Lake by Toluca Lake

lyrics

Don't you struggle now, you'll just hurt yourself
I can't have you dying earlier than planned
Who are you? Who am I?
We have no obligations and young is the night
You've no sympathy, you just cornered me.
Thrust me into a cold situation like blood losing heat on the floor
but no more will you be so pompous today.
I have come for you so don't you cry now.
You know what you've done. If not I don't care.

Pray for me, it seems to be all you need.

Tell me how much you forgive me when we are done
Don't you give up on me, or I won't kill you so soon
Now you tell me how much god loves me
I want lightning. Pray, make your faith kill me.

Is that false trinity still clutched tightly between your little fingers tonight?
I like how you only have it when in need.
Lose it when you want someone to bleed.
I want to find the cost of god in your eyes.
Is that little trip to heaven worth a finger or two?
How engaging.
I have found a price on your paradise
and it seems that god is a few digits short of me.

Now get down on your knees.

You are so kind to me I guess that happens when
You realize you're not better than everyone
Cold white walls, cold fingers, cold blank stare, nothing's there
I stare at oblivion awaits all of us.
Blood that no longer exists, it just drifts away
Nothing is real that I've done, I am all gray.
I am all gray. Nothing is real. I am gray.
