[Verse 1: Madeleine Hyland]

My eyes are made of winter and these hands I hold are skin and bone

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Our bedsheets thrown, the meals gone cold

I know you, I know you of old

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


[Pre-Chorus 1]

Pray for me oh children pray for what I've I've I've I've done

I'll haunt the very wrinkles of your skin

Pray for me, I'll run until I begin to understand

What holy men really mean

When they speak of sin


[Chorus]

Oh woah, oh woah

Pray for me 'cause I won't pray for you

Oh woah, oh woah

Pray for me 'cause I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for you


[Verse 2]

If you knew all that I'd done

The words that shone are all but gone

Oh woah

The hearts I've broken, the minds I've woken

Sweet nothings are screamed not spoken

Oh woah

[Pre-Chorus 2: Madeleine Hyland & Joey Batey, Both]

God made all man in his image (God made all men)

Honey I'm I'm no man

I'm what’s left when children go to war

Run from you, I'll run until I begin to understand (Run from you, understand)

What holy men really mean

When they speak of sand and sons and seams

And symphonies and sweat and sex and sin


[Chorus]

Oh woah, oh woah

Pray for me 'cause I won't pray for you

Oh, oh woah, oh pray for me 'cause I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for

Oh, oh (Oh, o-oh-oh), oh, oh, oh

(Pray -oh-r )me 'cause I won't pray for you

Oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh-oh

Pray for me 'cause I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for

You


[Ad-libs]

Aye, aye

Ah-m aye, aye

Ah duh buh aye ah duh luh-oh

Ha-woah ah woah

I want it all


[Bridge]

Pray for me oh children pray for what I've, I've, I've undone

I cannot sleep when all you do is cry

Pray for me, I'll run until I begin to understand

What holy men really mean when they speak of all that's been and all that won't

And all you do and don't

Why you cannot sleep for sighing (Oh-oh-oh)

Why womanhood is more than crying (Oh-oh-oh)

I'm stronger now than you have ever known

The cracks you made I fill with mortar

A broken pot can still hold water

Symphonies and sweat and sex mean nothing when you are obsessed

With sin and soil and strength and song and all the words that came out wrong and him


[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Pray for me 'cause I won't pray for you

Oh woah (Oh, o-oh-oh), oh, o,w ao

(Pray or me 'cause I won't pray for)

I won't, I won't pray for

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Pray for me 'cause I won't pray for you

Oh woah (Oh, o-oh-oh), oh, o,w ao

(Pray or me 'cause I won't pray for)

I won't, I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for

I won't, I won't pray for

(I won't pray for)
