Prayers for Rain (live) - The Cure

You shatter me

Your grip on me

A hold on me, so dull it kills

You stifle me

Infectious sense of hopelessness

And prayers for rain

I suffocate

I breathe in dirt

And nowhere shines, but desolate and drab

The hours all spent on killing time again

All waiting for the rain

You fracture me

Your hands on me

A touch so plain, so stale it kills

You strangle me

Entangle me in hopelessness

And prayers for rain

I deteriorate

I live in dirt

And nowhere glows but drearily and tired

The hours all spent on killing time again

All waiting for the rain

You fracture me

Your hands on me

A touch so plain, so stale it kills

You strangle me

Entangle me in hopelessness

And prayers for rain

Prayers for rain

Prayers for rain

Prayers for rain
