Unloved
Written by - Jann Arden Richards
There will be no consolation prize  
This time the bone is broken clean  
No baptism, no reprise and no sweet taste of victory
All the stars have fallen from the sky  
And everything else in between  
Satellites have closed their eyes, the moon has gone to sleep  
Unloved - Unloved - Unloved - Unloved  

Here I am inside a hotel choking on a million words I said  
Cigarettes have burned a hole and dreams are drunk and penniless  
Here I am inside my father's arms all jagged-bone and whisky dry  
Whisper to me sweetly now and tell me I will never die  
Unloved - Unloved - Unloved - Unloved  

Here I am an empty hallway  
Broken window, rainy night  
I am nineteen sixty-two and I am ready for a fight
People crying hallelujah while the bullet leaves the gun  
People falling, falling, falling and I don’t know where they’re falling from  
Are they  
Unloved - Unloved - Unloved - Unloved  

Hoping that the kindness will lead us past the blindness and  
Not another living soul will ever have to feel  
Unloved - Unloved - Unloved - Unloved  
Unloved - Unloved
