Lyrics:

When you burn your kingdomThrough the ashes I will comeI know it makes no differenceBut I can't leave ya to your funUsin' up your torch song giftsWhy do you rush the end along?Actin' like you'll soon forgetThe end is comin' on its ownJust this onceI'll say a prayer for youThough I won't pretend to helpJust this onceI'll say a prayer for youBurnin' up the floorboardsBurned every place you stoodEvery second chance: firewoodBad luck is a famous nameFor what you brought yourselfAnd I'm too dumb to helpJust this onceI'll say a prayer for youThough I won't pretend I'm rightIf you askI'll say a prayer for youThey say the city don't give upAnd I believe that's true (don't you?)Ricochets from boom to bustLike most of usWho never cared enough...Just this onceI'll say a prayer for youThough I won't pretend I'm rightIf you askI'll say a prayer for youIn the middle of the streetI will stopI'll say a prayer for youIf that's what you really wantI will stop...I'll say a prayer for youIn the middle of the street...
