Timmy's Prayer

Lyrics

If ever you're listening
 If ever you're listening
 ♪
 If ever you're listening
 ♪
 If ever you're listening
 If heaven's a prison
 Then I am your prisoner
 Yes, I am your prisoner
 I messed up, ooh
 I know now
 There's no room for me to play now
 No way to dig my way out
 My vital organs are beating through
 My ribcage opened, my heart ballooned
 I... I've lost another one
 I'm on the floor trying to dress my wounds
 Address the fact it was mine to lose
 I... I didn't try enough
 And when I'm left without your love
 It could feel like a lifetime baby
 And somewhere in the start we had it alright
 Sunshine and blue skies, yes I call
 But now there's a darker blue
 I'm bleeding and you don't care
 The sun sinks and you're not there
 If ever you're listening
 If heaven's a prison
 Then I am your prisoner
 Yes, I am your prisoner
 I messed up, ooh
 I know now
 There's no room for me to play now
 No way to dig my way out
 My brother always said I'm a dreamer, dreamer
 You better watch out where this life will lead ya
 ♪
 And he always said she's a keeper, keeper
 She'll stay by your side when the rest will leave ya
 Well I'm looking on my left side, I'm looking on my right
 She's nowhere to be seen now when I close my eyes at night
 Dreaming, surely you can find me by the shore
 I'm singing so blindly, can you hear me?
 Can you find me?
 If you find me, wanna tell you I love you so
 I wanna tell you that love comes and goes
 That it comes and goes
 I hear the footsteps in the water and I feel the breeze
 I open my eyes and no words, no words...
 I wish that I'd listened when I was in prison
 Now I'm just a visitor
 I came to the gates but you turned me away
 You asked me what am I waiting for
 I'm waiting 'cause I fucked up, ooh
 I got thrown out
 I don't know which way to go now
 Don't know which way is home now
 If ever you're listening
 If heaven's a prison
 Then I am your prisoner
 Yes, I am your prisoner
 I messed up, oh
 I know now
 There's no room for me to play now
 No way to dig my way out
