Unsettled Scores
There's a prayer for the living and the dying
There's a prayer to soothe the savage sea
There's a prayer it seems for almost everything
But you, you haven't got a prayer for me
And I, I haven't got a prayer
So many cries in the night that you try to ignore
Why didn't I do that?, why didn't I do this?
So many unbroken chains, so many unsettled scores
The old man at the bank that sneers
The teachers and their slaps
The brutal eyes, the uniforms
The liars and their traps
The lonely girls who yearn to love
And learn to kiss and dance
The rich and selfish widows
In the market for romance
The soldier with the smell of war
That never fades away
The heroes on the playing fields
Forgotten in a day
The priest and the confession
The trembling hands and whispered sighs
The doctors in the hospital
Unending tests and twisted lies
The betrayers, the betrayed
The abandoned, the afraid
The corrupted and the celebrated
Endlessly humiliated
Gloriously big parade
You can say a prayer for everyone
That there could ever be
Say a prayer for all of these and more
But there's still no prayer for me
Say a prayer for your purest daughter
Toll a bell for your only son
