[00:25.03]I counted my luck and I went with my brother
[00:30.02]To where the witch on the hill threw the bones of her mother
[00:35.46]To where the bravest birds in the height of the sky
[00:38.67]Tumbled down the mountain side
[00:41.55]And gathered to pray like a blanket on the fallen pines
[00:50.66]Like praying ain't a waste of time
[01:13.73]She told me again that she knew I'd be coming
[01:18.85]While she padded her gown with all my counterfeit money
[01:24.15]And said "Your love is locked in the garden you grow
[01:27.17]Like a soldier's wound that bleeds through his clothes
[01:29.84]So pick up your gun and pray there's no one else to fight."
[01:39.25]Like praying ain't a waste of time
[01:56.21]Ain't a waste of time
[02:06.78]Ain't a waste of time
[02:24.57]I said "You're giving me less than you know I can handle."
[02:30.21]So the witch on the hill lit a single black candle
[02:35.70]And said "The name of God is carved on a blade
[02:38.47]The wheels you make will turn in flames
[02:41.00]So pray for love and the world to pray in kind."
[02:50.42]Like praying ain't a waste of time
[03:11.36]
