Seeds of Doubt Lyrics

This is a prayer

An uneasy feeling until you need to come up for air

It's just once you're bleeding, then do you see you're unprepared

And scared

This is a prayer

This is a bluff

Some twisted delight in knowing me might have had enough

Heartsick of the lying when we're trying not to cut

And run

This is a bluff

When I'm stretching for the sun

Overgrown where I've begun

Will I bow my head to pray

Or just to hide my lack of faith

This is a risk

Taking the blows, what we undergo when love persists

Never to know the odds on the throw but to commit

And miss

This is a risk

This is a dream

A liminal fake that's been framed as opaque in our routine

When trying to wake with abdominal aches, to feel obscene

And scream

This is a dream

When I'm stretching for the sun

Overgrown where I've begun

Will I bow my head to pray

Or just to hide my lack of faith

I've been living off these little interventions for far

Far too long

Would it kill for just a little interjection in face

Of it all

I was taught the thought for your little messiah was to fight to hear our cries

I'm trying not to lie

I think that I want to die

This is a prayer

An uneasy feeling until you need to come up for air

It's just once you're bleeding, then do you see you're unprepared

And scared

This is a prayer
