A prayer for how out of control the days can spin
If I prayed would it make the world go still
Are we jumping from valley to valley
Kicking over the peaks for the thrill

Your heart starts to let in the worst of it
It gets so dark all we can see are black clothes
But if we start sinking they’ll be no hope to float
Nothing to do but to hold each day as it goes

A prayer for how long the nights can feel
If I prayed would it make the dawn draw near
Are we locking ourselves in the haunted house
Pretending there’s nothing more to fear

My heart always lets in the worst of it
I find hope and watch it smother me in my sleep
But if I stop breathing I stop loving and that’s the worst of it
Nothing to do but pray the Lord my soul to keep

With Love,

Natalie
