Chris Cornell - Stolen Prayer lyrics

Stolen prayer - the last temptation, 1994<br><br>I walk the streets alone<br>On feeble bones I ride<br>My sins are etched in stone<br>I got no place to hide<br>Well, I was unshakable<br>In what I did believe<br>I feel so breakable<br>But have I been deceived<br><br>You showed me your paradise<br>And your carnival of souls<br>But my heart keeps telling me<br>That ain't the place to go<br>Well, I'm not invincible<br>So I want you to leave<br>Well, I'm so convincible<br>But have I been deceived<br><br>I take your words and try them on<br>Yeah, it's a perfect fit, boy<br>You tell me one size fits us all<br>Yeah, like an old straightjacket<br>Well, tell me why I'm so afraid<br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>In a stolen prayer<br><br>I remember yesterday<br>When things were black and white<br>Never thought I'd get confused<br>On what was wrong and right<br>Well, I'm not unbreakable<br>With armor on my skin<br>Well, it's not unthinkable<br>I could be fooled again<br><br>I take your words and try them on<br>Yeah, it's a perfect fit, boy<br>You tell me one size fits us all<br>Yeah, like an old straightjacket<br>Well, tell me why I'm so afraid<br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>In a stolen prayer<br><br>You steal another minute from my life<br>You cut a little deeper with your knife<br>You steal a little breath from my air<br>And you don't care<br>And even though I'm chokin'<br>All my words are spoken<br><br>I take your words and try them on<br>Yeah, it's a perfect fit, boy<br>You tell me one size fits us all<br>Yeah, like an old straightjacket<br>Take this world and try it on<br>Man, you're lookin' good boy<br>Stick your neck out on the block<br>So you won't miss nothing<br>Stretch your finger, grab your hair<br>Don't you feel like screaming<br>Feel the blood rush from your veins<br>Now you're a perfect zombie<br>Now I'm on my knees<br><br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>All my words are spoken<br>In a stolen prayer
