lyrics

I take only small steps
Towards generosity
I won’t surrender
To the eyes of those who claim such misery

Day by day
I learn to pray

I pull my hair back
And watch my head weigh down with gravity
My hands are worn out
But my last cigarette will always be there for me

Day by day
I learn to pray

And in the end i question
What and who is there beyond me
I dont understand the meaning of this complexity
But does it really matter to me?

‘Cause day by day
I learn to pray
