I am a prayer in the darkness
Album: Moody Girl
Track #4 Waiting to Shine

I am a prayer in the darkness

Upon the lips of the blind

Seeking the world and it’s wisdom

Show me the way to the light

I am a song in the distance

That lonely ears hear at night

Filling the world made of madness

Lift up your head and hear me cry

Now you know why

Sometimes fruit will dry on the vine

Hidden inside little dreams still waiting to shine

I am a soul spinning silent

Leaving the world and it’s blight

From down on high I am crying

Losing my way and my sight

I am a light with a secret

Under the worlds weight I hide

Aching to see morning break where

From underneath I’ll one day rise

Now you know why

Sometimes fruit will dry on the vine

Hidden inside little dreams still waiting to shine

Waiting to shine Lord, waiting to shine

Let wishes be horses so beggars can ride

I am a bird kept from freedom

Innocent inmate of time

Wicked the world and it’s violence

Unlock the door see me fly

I am a tree thick with branches

Full of desire bitter and sweet

Giving the world all the answers

Ask of yourself which one you eat

Now you know why

Sometimes fruit will dry on the vine

Hidden inside little dreams still waiting to shine

Waiting to shine Lord, Waiting to shine

Let wishes be horses so beggars can ride
