Sailor's Prayer Lyrics
The Devil Wears Prada
Lyrics
Staying late for suffering
Swaying back and forth like seas
Staying late for suffering
Swaying back and forth like seas
I'm the one she'll never meet
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late
I'm always hoping to maybe change
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late, I am away
Staying late for misery
I move back to you
I move back to you
The salt tastes just the same
Thunder breaks overhead
As I'm still away, we'll never meet
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late
I'm always hoping to maybe change
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late, I am away
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late
I'm always hoping to maybe change
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late, I am away
Between sharks and kings
It doesn't matter much to me
And I'm still away
I'm still away
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late
I'm always hoping to maybe change
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late, I am away
It's like the same thing
You're just a little late
I'm always hoping to maybe change
It's like the same thing
This is the sailor's prayer
You can find love elsewhere
This is the sailor's prayer
You can find love elsewhere
This is the sailor's prayer
You can find love elsewhere
This is the sailor's prayer
You can find love elsewhere
Song & Lyrics Facts
The Devil Wears Prada's song "Sailor's Prayer" was released on the band's third album, Dead Throne, in 2011. The heavy metalcore track is written by Jeremy DePoyster and Mike Hranica of the band, and features lyrics that tell a story of a sailor praying for salvation while at sea.
The lyrics describe a man who has gone to sea with only his faith as an anchor, and he prays for guidance and protection from the stormy waves. With its powerful chorus and intense instrumentation, "Sailor's Prayer" serves as a reminder of the power of prayer even when all hope seems lost.
