Song title: Nick Cave - Idiot Prayer

Edit By: 216.73.216.149

Theyre taking me down, my friend
And as they usher me off to my end
Will I bid you adieu?
Or will I be seeing you soon?
If what they say around here is true
Then well meet again
Me and you

My time is at hand, my dove
Theyre gonna pass me to that house above
Is heaven just for victims, dear?
Where only those in pain go?
Well it takes two to tango
We will meet again, my love
I know

If youre in heaven then youll forgive me, dear
Because thats what they do up there
If youre in hell, then what can I say
You probably deserved in anyway
I guess Im gonna find out any day
For well meet again
And therell be hell to pay

Your face comes to me from the depths, dear
Your silent mouth mouths, yes, dear
Dark red and big with blood
Theyre gonna shut me down, my love
Theyre gonna launch me into the stars
Well, all things come to pass
Glory hallelujah

This prayer is for you, my love
Sent on the wings of a dove
An idiot prayer of empty words
Love, dear, is strictly for the birds
We each get what we deserve
My little snow white dove
Rest assured
