Stolen Prayer

stolen  prayer  -  alice  cooper

  i  walk  the  streets  alone

  on  feeble  bones  i  ride

    my  sins  are  etched  in  stone

  i  got  no  place  to  hide

  well,  i  was  unshakable

    in  what  i  did  believe

    i  feel  so  breakable

  but  have  i  been  deceived

    you  showed  me  your  paradise

  and  your  carnival  of  souls

    but  my  heart  keeps  telling  me

  that  ain't  the  place  to  go

    well,  i'm  not  invincible

  so  i  want  you  to  leave

    well,  i'm  so  convincible

  but  have  i  been  deceived

    i  take  your  words  and  try  them  on

  yeah,  it's  a  perfect  fit,  boy

    you  tell  me  one  size  fits  us  all

  yeah,  like  an  old  straight  jacket

    well,  tell  me  why  i'm  so  afraid

  all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  are  spoken

  in  a  stolen  prayer

    i  remember  yesterday

  when  things  were  black  and  white

    never  thought  i'd  get  confused

  on  what  was  wrong  and  right

    well,  i'm  not  unbreakable

  with  armor  on  my  skin

    well,  it's  not  unthinkable

  i  could  be  fooled  again

    i  take  your  words  and  try  them  on

  yeah,  it's  a  perfect  fit,  boy

    you  tell  me  one  size  fits  us  all

  yeah,  like  an  old  straight  jacket

    well,  tell  me  why  i'm  so  afraid

    all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  spokenare  

  in  a  stolen  prayer

    you  steal  another  minute  from  my  life

    you  cut  a  little  deeper  with  your  knife

    you  steal  a  little  breath  from  my  air

  and  you  don't  care

    and  even  thought  i'm  choking

    all  my  words  are  spoken

    i  take  your  words  and  try  them  on

  yeah,  it's  a  perfect  fit,  boy

  you  tell  me  one  size  fits  us  all

  yeah,  like  an  old  straight  jacket

    take  this  world  and  try  it  on

  man,  you're  looking  good,  boy

  stick  your  neck  out  on  the  block

  so  you  won't  miss  nothing

  stretch  your  finger,  grab  your  hair

  don't  you  feel  like  screaming

  feel  the  blood  rush  from  your  veins

  now  you're  a  perfect  zombie

    now  i'm  down  on  my  knees

  all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  are  spoken

    all  my  words  are  spoken

  in  a  stolen  prayer
