Barely Listening lyrics

Artist  : Pilate 
Song : Barely Listening



 Send "Barely Listening" Ringtone to your Cell 

 I lie awake on this phone call, she's dreaming of
better days 

Flowers lie on the counter, remind her of better
days 



She sends a prayer up to Jesus 

And she asks him for his strength 

And the night will go on bleeding 

Was it faith that paid the rent? 



*And I know you're barely listening 

I know you're barely listening 

I know you're barely listening 

Now I know you're…. 

I know you're barely listening 

I know you're barely listening 

I know you're barely listening 

Now I know you're…. 



Standing here in a doorway with a candle and a
gun 

The light tears through open windows 

For now the day has won 



[Repeat *] 



Like a child on her way here 

You just smile and run the other way 

And faith won't find you a reason 

It just smiles and runs the other way 

And It just smiles…. 

It just smiles and runs the other way 

It just smiles…. 

It just smiles and then runs the other way 



(scat singing) 

It's not worth waiting 



[Repeat *] 



you can't shape love with a hammer, 

and you can't shape love with a will, 

what horror lies in knowing there's no faith that
chaos can't kill
