I pray
I pray for better days
I pray for days devoid of lies
I pray for peace of mind
.
I pray for my lost serenity
I pray for my tortured innocence
I pray for a life of love
.
I dare not hope beyond tomorrow
I dare not hope for clear blue skies
But I pray for a future, one day devoid of lies
I pray for the rain, which will wash all my sins away
.
I pray for diamond skin
I pray for the shapeshifter deep within
I pray for that rogue power
The wisdom to use it
.
I pray not for love to receive
But for love to give
I pray for less hate
More acceptance
.
I pray for my lost religion
And to that inner goddess guiding me
I pray for starlight in the darkest night
.
The night is always blackest before dawn
Or so they say
I pray they might be right this time
I pray, I pray, I pray.
