"Bedtime Prayer"
Need a do-over
On everything

Just a damsel in distress
But there is no savior
No one to help me out of this mess
There is no Captain Save A Ho

Completely lost my mojo
Everything's so out of whack
The swagger is gone
I'm completely off track
Just wanna close my eyes
And go to sleep
And pray the Lord
My soul to keep
Asleep

Slow blood and running tears
Unexpressed through lonely years
How might someone know your fears
