church of the lonely

sweethearts never last down here

say nothing sweet about love

yeah

we walk on the line my dear

fall and never get up

it's out of my hands

but i won't leave you

enough of your faith

where does it lead you

cause love is not fair

and war isn't holy

this is our prayer

the church of the lonely

leave your tears at the alter

your son's and your daughters'

it's out of our hands

love has finally caught us

we tried to be strong but

it's out of our hands

no fear for the law man

no words for the judge

lost out to a mother long gone

nah the devil ain't done

it's out of my hands

i won't leave you

not for your faith

where does it lead you

love is not fair

and war isn't holy

this is our prayer

the church of the lonely

leave your tears at the altar

your son's and your daughters'

it's out of our hands

love has finally caught us

we tried to be strong but

it's out of our hands

trapped in a lonely time

waiting for what comes around

if that's what it's all about

close my eyes and lay it down

so much to talk about

so afraid to let it out

but we'll find a way somehow

close to here

but far from now

leave your tears at the altar

your son's and your daughters'

it's out of our hands

love has finally caught us

we tried to be strong but

it's out of our hands
