I spoke in dulcet tones
With liquid silver tongue
I thought my charm would out
How I was wrong
I tried to cross the bridge
Decked out in scarlet hues
A traitor in our midst
In sensible shoes
Come and say a prayer with me
Let’s get into their hair and see
Come and poke the bear with me
Just channel your despair and see
I was a wanderer
No stomach for the fight
No rebel-rousing cur
Caught in plain sight
Come and say a prayer with me
Let’s get into their hair and see
Come and poke the bear with me
Just channel your despair and see
I marked the spot
Where you once fell
I kissed the earth to cast your spell
I crossed my heart and hoped to die
To be the splinter in their eye
If I could be just half of you
Distill the light that’s shining through
I raised my head and charged the rain
I’m coming love, to be with you again
Come and say a prayer with me
(Come and say a prayer with me)
Let’s get into their hair and see
(Let’s get into their hair and see)
Come and poke the bear with me
(Come and poke the bear with me)
Just channel your despair and see
{Just channel your despair and see)
