The Prayer Position - AFI

Now, peel the skin back from the flesh

Steal the flesh back from the starving static minds

From nature we must stray, to clarity we’ll climb

Deadly impulse seems so natural

Just look beyond it and we’ll find, we will find

A brand new evolution, here begins a brand new line

And in the distance there’s a gathering

That no longer seems so far away

Pushed to our knees so let us pray

And all together we’ll bring the real rain

Watch all that’s wasted wash away

So let it come, our will be done

Stature retrieved, regain our form

Break free from instinct that’s left us all confined

From nature we must stray, to clarity we’ll climb

Tradition ingrained, now impermissible

Now comes a call for all to find, we will find

A brand new evolution, here begins a brand new line

And in the distance there’s a gathering

That no longer seems so far away

Pushed to our knees so let us pray

And all together we’ll bring the real rain

Watch all that’s wasted wash away

So let it come, our will be done

I can’t help but fear

Look to my species and tremble

To think that God is just

And in the distance there’s a gathering

That no longer seems so far away

Pushed to our knees so let us pray

And all together we’ll bring the real rain

Watch all that’s wasted wash away

So let it come, our will be done
