Paul Simon
Wartime Prayers

Prayers offered in times of peace are silent conversations,
Appeals for love or loves release, in private invocations.

But all that is changed now,
Gone like a memory from the day before the fires.
People hungry for the voice of God
Hear lunatics and liars

Wartime prayers, wartime prayers
In every language spoken,
For every family scattered and broken.

Because you cannot walk with the holy,
If you're just a halfway decent man.
But I don't pretend that I'm a mastermind
With a genious marketing plan.

I'm trying to tap into some wisdom,
Even a little drop would do.
I want to rid my heart of envy
And cleanse my soul of rage
Before I feel.

Times are hard, hard times,
But everybody knows all about hard times.
The thing is, what are you gonna do?
Will you cry?
And try to muscle through?
And try to rearrange your stuff?
But when the wounds are deep enough,
And it's all that we can bear,
We wrap ourselves in prayer.

Because you cannot walk with the holy,
If you're just a halfway decent man.
But I don't pretend that I'm a mastermind
With a genious marketing plan.

I'm trying to tap into some wisdom,
Even a little drop would do.
I want to rid my heart of envy
And cleanse my soul of rage
Before I'm through.

A mother murmurs in twilight sleep
And draws her babies closer.
With hush-a-bies for sleepy eyes,
And kisses on the shoulder.
To drive away despair
She sends a wartime prayer.



Mirror lyrics:


She sends a wartime prayer.
To drive away despair
And kisses on the shoulder.
With hush-a-bies for sleepy eyes,
And draws her babies closer.
A mother murmurs in twilight sleep

Before I'm through.
And cleanse my soul of rage
I want to rid my heart of envy
Even a little drop would do.
I'm trying to tap into some wisdom,

With a genious marketing plan.
But I don't pretend that I'm a mastermind
If you're just a halfway decent man.
Because you cannot walk with the holy,

We wrap ourselves in prayer.
And it's all that we can bear,
But when the wounds are deep enough,
And try to rearrange your stuff?
And try to muscle through?
Will you cry?
The thing is, what are you gonna do?
But everybody knows all about hard times.
Times are hard, hard times,

Before I feel.
And cleanse my soul of rage
I want to rid my heart of envy
Even a little drop would do.
I'm trying to tap into some wisdom,

With a genious marketing plan.
But I don't pretend that I'm a mastermind
If you're just a halfway decent man.
Because you cannot walk with the holy,

For every family scattered and broken.
In every language spoken,
Wartime prayers, wartime prayers

Hear lunatics and liars
People hungry for the voice of God
Gone like a memory from the day before the fires.
But all that is changed now,

Appeals for love or loves release, in private invocations.
Prayers offered in times of peace are silent conversations,
