St. Patrick's

Hey there Lord, it's me

I wonder if you're free

Or not asleep

This just won't keep

It seems I just don't see

Why all the things we asked

Or prayed would come to pass

Have gone unheard

Like silent words

That slip into the past

'Cause Lord, they're not schemes

Can't you tell dreams why?

Do you let them slip by

Never even try?

Is it you don't hear

There's far too many tears

Or can't you feel

Are we unreal

The one who knows no fears?

You say we must pay dues

But still I'm confused

I need to walk

And with you talk

Instead of two statues

'Cause Lord, they're not schemes

Can't you tell dreams why?

Do you let them slip by

Never even try?

If you take all the fame

Who'll accept the blame

For all the hurt

Down here on earth

Unnecessary pain?

Surely you must care

Or are you only air

Built in our minds

We're in binds

You're never really there

Can't we be tired of you?

Is that something we're allowed to do?

But even life changes views

And it's time to try

Something new

So I pled my case

And now I pull my escape

Didn't mean to doubt

What it's all about

It seems I forgot my place

But if you find the time

Please change the storyline

Or give a call

Explain it all

I'll even leave the dime
