lyrics

Letting go of what you were never meant to own

I’ve been thinking bout how the way back home keeps getting longer

I’ll try for you, if you can just help me remember

The more you try the more it slips right through your hands

A losing fight, pissed off, punching at the wind

So I’m pushing through, the only way I can

And I still pray, yeah I still pray

But not like I used to

You speak to me in a thousand shades of truth

It was all so new, when I met you on that hill in late September

It’s a terrible thing

To wonder where you are

But I still smile, oh I still smile

Write it down, sing it out, so I remember

The way it felt when I felt everything

But it’s getting late

And I’m still heading home from somewhere

I don’t recall

And I still pray

Oh I still pray, but not like I used to
