Vertical Horizon - Prayer For An Innocent Man lyrics

rate me

Oh won't you listen, o Lord, to my plea for justice Can't you hear my cry for help Try to heed my honest prayer And judge me in my favor 'Cause you know my heart And you've come to me at night But it's so hard to speak no evil In a hole deprived of light So I pray for you to answer And to turn to me and smile Shower me with love to save me From demons deep inside Protect me as you would your own eyes In the shadows of your wings And learn to know the sound that echoes When an innocent man sings When an innocent man sings When he sings So I lie with all my failures Praying to my best friend's ghost Time to kneel instead of sitting And let me do thy bidding Won't you let me do thy bidding, yeah Help me do thy bidding
