LOCKEPORT PRAYER - WESLEYFRANKLIN
[INTRO]
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the my soul to take

[VERSE1]
So your demons
Come and go you
Lose faith in the ground believing
Everything is working itself out
But things ain't lookin that way
Right now
Some days you’re up
Some days you're down
But mostly those
Have come around
Now you won't complain
Way too proud
Ain’t nothing wrong
With givin a shout
If you can't move just make a sound

[CHORUS X2}
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray that you
Find what you need
You spend your whole life
Searching through the trees
For something real to set you free

Something real (yeah) (yeah) x4

[VERSE2]
Seems like all the rains fallin on ya
No sunny days no California
Swear it'll be just fine
Even if you lose your mind
I remember, backed in to corner
Wishing I was born or dead
Well hopefully not the former
But I got too close to the coroner, for comfort
The love was on a loaner
She would want it back
See we looked into each other
For the things we knew we lacked

[BRIDGE]
Now I know there's more important things
Than a broken heart
See that was simply a metaphor
For how it falls apart
Ask me how to begin
You gotta push to start
And if you need a little help
Say this prayer where you are

Lord pray my soul
Pray my soul you keep
And if I never know why you keep blessin me
Please keep control of the things I can't
And before you go
Thank you for another chance

[CHORUS X2}
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray that you
Find what you need
You spend your whole life
Searching through the trees
For something real to set you free
