I lie awake on this phone call She's dreaming of better days Flowers lie on the counter Remind her of better days
She sends a prayer up to Jesus And she asks him for his strength And the night will go on bleeding Was it faith that paid the rent?
And I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening Now I know you're... I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening Now I know you're...
Standing here in the doorway With a candle and a gun The lights you threw open windows For now the day has won
And I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening Now I know you're... I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening Now I know you're...
Like a child on her way here You just smile and run the other way And faith won't find me a reason It just smiles and runs the other way
And it just smiles It just smiles and runs the other way It just smiles It just smiles and then runs the other way
It's not worth waiting It's not worth waiting
I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening Now I know you're... I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening I know you're barely listening Now I know you're...
You question love with a camera And you're catching love with a will Well heart lies in loneliness Now fight the past can kill
