′Cause every word you say

Is like a wrecking ball

Swing at meAnd watch me fall

But every breath you take

Yeah it feels like mine

So pray for me

Until my time

And I know we pick the roses

For the ones we love the most

But tell me why my hands

Are always bleeding from the thorns

I wash away my promise

With the power that you hold

Before I change my mind

Oh look son there goes that man

He's got his

Heartstrings tied around his hands

Will the spirit in the sky

Come down and take him to his throne

Before he pays the price

′Cause every word you say

Is like a wrecking ball

Swing at me

And watch me fall

But every breath you take

Yeah it feels like mine

So pray for me

Until my time

Ooh-ooh-ooh

(Pray for me, pray for me, pray for me)

Ooh-ooh-ooh

And I know we think the future

Is just out of our control

But tell me why the future's

Always playin' with my soul

I throw away a part of me

So I can make you whole

Before I change my mind

Oh look son there goes that man

He′s got his

Heartstrings tied around his hands

Will the spirit in the sky

Come down and take him to his throne

Before he pays the price

′Cause every word you say

Is like a wrecking ball

Swing at me

And watch me fall

But every breath you take

Yeah it feels like mine

So pray for me

Until my time

Ooh-ooh-ooh

(Pray for me, pray for me, pray for me)

Ooh-ooh-ooh
