Don’t Pray
don’t pray for me
I no more listen
to your senseless talks
I hate your crowd
your crazy walks
thoughts so condensed
I’ll kick against
this righteous talk
I’ll have you blocked
don’t pray for me
just bow your head
take off your dress
lay down your staff
don’t you pray for me
no longer hold on to your lies
plastic tears run from your eyes
the only truth you will deny
while raising hands up to the sky
thoughts so consented
but wrong intended
this righteous talk
I’ll have you blocked
don’t pray for me
just bow your head
take off your dress
lay down your staff
don’t talk to me
don’t pray for me
don’t pray for me
don’t pray for me
I no more listen
to your senseless talks
I hate your crowd
your crazy walks
thoughts so condensed
I’ll kick against
this righteous talk
I’ll have you blocked
don’t pray for me
just bow your head
take off your dress
lay down your staff
don’t pray for me

It has been a while since Born For Bliss released new music. The band is happy to announce that they are working on a new full album, expected to be released later this year.
Born For Bliss takes a bold and unapologetic stance in their latest release "Don't Pray”. The lyrics of this track are a powerful commentary on the hypocrisy and emptiness of religious institutions and the people who lead them. The band's use of strong imagery and striking metaphors paints a vivid picture of their message, making it impossible to ignore.
The lyrics are delivered with a raw and emotional intensity that perfectly captures the frustration and disillusionment of the song's subject, encapsulating the band's disdain for the phoniness and insincerity of those in power. The backing vocals by Yvette Winkler (singer with Dark Wave band ‘Vaselyne’) perfectly complement Frank Weyzig’s voice, creating a harmonious blend that captures the emotions of the lyrics.
Musically, the song is a perfect complement to the lyrics, with a driving beat and at places a raw, driven sound that adds to the intensity of the message. The band's alternative indie wave style is on full display here, showcasing their unique blend of influences and their ability to create something truly original.

about
Born For Bliss Amsterdam, Netherlands
During the 80’s, Born for Bliss members Frank Weyzig and Willem van Antwerpen created thrilling sounds together with the still cultic Clan of Xymox.
