Although it hurts sometimes and I wish that I could just forgive
Time's a raging horse, always pulling me ahead
And I try to recall a little but not much more than that
These prayers and pills and pictures won't bring you back
It's never black or white but never settle for the grey
Oh that's what you'd say
It falls apart but just pick it up and start again
And when I started talking in riddles
Well I know you hated that
But these prayers and pills and pictures are all I have
[Chorus]
I've laid the ghost of restlessness
I've seen the fire go out
Apologies and pointless words keep falling from my mouth
And these prayers and pills and pictures don't bring you back
But I still get caught in the middle
And the years will do their dance
But I don't want you thinking that lonely or that I've been drinking
These prayers and pills and pictures don't bring you back
[Chorus]
Well I've laid the ghost of restlessness
And I've seen the fire go out
Apologies and pointless words keep falling from my mouth
And these prayers and pills and pictures
Yeah these prayers and pills and pictures can't bring you back
You were beautiful
You were beautiful
You were beautiful
You were beautiful
