Children of Bodom
Prayer for the Afflicted
[Verse 1]
We heard a prayer for the brighter morrow
It's hard to take through all the laughter
We don't believe in tomorrow
It's just another morning after
[Separator]
I need you far away from me
I want you closer to me
I need you far away from me
I want you closer to me
[Verse 2]
We take a stand and we're standing tall
But only three of us crawl away
Never get old nor would we fall
But only two of us saw yesterday
[Pre-Chorus]
I never thought it would get this far, oh no...
Wherever you are, i won't follow
When the candles slowly die
I will say my last goodbye
[Chorus]
I need you far away from me
I want you closer to me
I need you far away from me
I want you closer to me
[Verse 3]
Don't bother trying to save us
We don't need your prayers
Because we were the afflicted, none of you stay
And none of us walked away
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
I need you far away from me
I want you closer to me
I need you far away from me
I want you closer to me
