"Prayer X (From "Banana Fish")" lyrics

I see the light as I spill the tears inside
Glimmering and bright
Day fades to night before my eyes
If I have to go again just when I've found you sleeping at my side
We live, we die, so what's left to believe?

From the moment I could breathe I was screaming, crying to the night
All the hands to hold me couldn't keep me from knowing
Life's a game we end up losing
Like a key, the knife stuck in me is locking up my heart
And if I pull it out I'll be bloodless, encompassed
And drowning in my tears I'll fall apart

I see the light as I spill the tears inside
Glimmering and bright
Day fades to night before my eyes
If I have to go again just when I've found you sleeping at my side
We live, we die, so what's left to believe?

The smile that I hide behind's been cracking all this time?
I remember little prayers I'd recite to keep myself alive
Were they all a lie?
I've spent so long alone I've lost my sense of home
So I've been longing for the light that's always missing from my life
But don't you know, what you want, will always have to go

So if there's a meaning, for all this suffering
Can't you set me free?
Before I break my knees, from all this praying
Days are still empty, and I've had my fill of all the tears I've cried
We live, we die, so what's left to believe?

I see the light as I spill the tears inside
Glimmering and bright
Day fades to night before my eyes
If I have to go again just when I've found you sleeping at my side
We live, we die, so what's left to believe?
