Chris Cornell - Stolen Prayer Lyrics
Stolen prayer - the last temptation, 1994I walk the streets aloneOn feeble bones I rideMy sins are etched in stoneI got no place to hideWell, I was unshakableIn what I did believeI feel so breakableBut have I been deceivedYou showed me your paradiseAnd your carnival of soulsBut my heart keeps telling meThat aint the place to goWell, Im not invincibleSo I want you to leaveWell, Im so convincibleBut have I been deceivedI take your words and try them onYeah, its a perfect fit, boyYou tell me one size fits us allYeah, like an old straightjacketWell, tell me why Im so afraidAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenIn a stolen prayerI remember yesterdayWhen things were black and whiteNever thought Id get confusedOn what was wrong and rightWell, Im not unbreakableWith armor on my skinWell, its not unthinkableI could be fooled againI take your words and try them onYeah, its a perfect fit, boyYou tell me one size fits us allYeah, like an old straightjacketWell, tell me why Im so afraidAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenIn a stolen prayerYou steal another minute from my lifeYou cut a little deeper with your knifeYou steal a little breath from my airAnd you dont careAnd even though Im chokinAll my words are spokenI take your words and try them onYeah, its a perfect fit, boyYou tell me one size fits us allYeah, like an old straightjacketTake this world and try it onMan, youre lookin good boyStick your neck out on the blockSo you wont miss nothingStretch your finger, grab your hairDont you feel like screamingFeel the blood rush from your veinsNow youre a perfect zombieNow Im on my kneesAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenAll my words are spokenIn a stolen prayer
