David Duchovny - Stranger In The Sacred Heart

In the city where my father died
I find it very hard to hide
So many days gone by but I
Let it slide

Famine, ignorance and war
I keep just outside my door
It's me, myself and I and I
Let it slide
I let it slide

But down at the sacred heart
Everyone plays someone else's part
The strangers and their rose
Pray for people they don't know
Just strangers in the sacred heart

A man alone can't crack the code
In dreams and streets I somehow know
Me feet take me where I need to go
They just slide
Just gotta let it slide

Down to the sacred heart
Everyone plays someone else's part
The strangers and their rose
Pray for people they don't know
Just strangers in the sacred heart

In another mother's tongue
The universal bell is rung
Haven't done enough for no one
Haven't done enough for no one
Haven't done enough

So this is where I'll pay my dues
Anonymous in the ancient pews
In Sacré-Cœur, I lost my pride
I let it die
Just couldn't let it slide

That's how to mend your heart
Paying someone else's part
The nameless and their rose
Pray for people they don't know
Just strangers in the sacred heart
I'm a stranger in the sacred heart
