"Pray For Forgiveness" lyrics - ALICIA KEYS

Beautiful garden, where have you gone?
My self-delusions are leaving me in the storm
Taking for granted all the goodness that I've found
Somewhere I lost all, the control came crashing down

[Chorus:]
And I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answers
'Cause it's hard for me to pretend
Look to my mother, call to the captain
Can't you see this state that I'm in?
And no one would know this, nobody noticed
'Cause it's me where it begins

Beautiful morning, please don't wake me from my sleep
'Cause I need some comfort to regain my sanity
And I don't wanna feel this crazy
I don't wanna feel discarded
Shattered into million pieces
I'm so brokenhearted
Nowhere left to run
Nowhere left to go
So I hope

[Chorus:]
I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answers
'Cause it's hard for me to pretend
Look to my mother, call to the captain
Can't you see this state that I'm in?
And no one would know this, nobody noticed
That it's me where it begins
And I pray for forgiveness within

[Bridge:]
I swear that every day I feel like my mind is haunting me
I think of every little stupid mistake that has been made
This time, I don't have the strength to gather myself
And I'm falling to pieces

[Chorus:]
And I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answers
'Cause it's hard for me to pretend
Look to my mother, call to the captain
Can't you see this state that I'm in?
I pray for forgiveness (Pray for forgiveness)
Looking for justice (Looking for justice)
Searching for answers (Searching for answers)
Call to my mother
Pray for forgiveness (Pray for forgiveness)
Breaking the silence
And nobody knows this, nobody noticed
That it's me where it begins
