Jules Shear — A Prayer (For Those Not Here) lyrics

Lyrics

We were like night and day
But found out through those walls
Night and day
We’re not so different at all
A light at the end of the tunnel
I was running for
I couldn’t pull you from
The dark side that you wanted more
Each time it happens
It’s still hard to be forgiving
To those outnumbered
By the ones who call this living
And I let myself wander
Past each and every face
Who see the same horizon
In so many different ways
With a prayer for those not here
A few words for the missing friends
Who leave a hole that never ends
A prayer for those not here
The ones who somehow disappear
And I can feel them everywhere
The one who never lived
But talked life theoretically
A Brazilian song we used to
Sing phonetically
And they ass along and
Find a different place
And I’m left here trying
To fill this empty space
With a prayer for those not here
A few words for the missing friends
Who leave a hole that never ends
A prayer for those not here
The ones who somehow disappear
And I can find them everywhere
A little fire
So well contained
It can barely be
Called a flame
But I don’t want to lose it
I’m not ready yet
I’ve learned to forgive but
I can’t learn to forget
A prayer for those not here
A few words for the missing friends
Who leave a hole that never ends
A prayer for those not here
The ones who somehow disappear
And I can feel them everywhere
A prayer for those not here
Oh a prayer for those not here
Oh a prayer for those not here
Oh a prayer for those not here
