From Wikipedia: China Crisis is a British rock group formed in 1979 in Kirkby on Merseyside, with a core band of vocalist/keyboardist Garry Daly and guitarist Eddie Lundon. Their output was pop music similar in style to that of the new romantics, but with strong similarities to the post-punk movement of the early 1980s, namely inclusion of a broader range of musical influences and occasional flirtation with political commentary. Sharing an affection for Stevie Wonder, David Bowie, and Brian Eno, Daly and Lundon had become burned out from playing with various Knowsley post-punk groups. Daly quit school and then spent much of his time indoors tinkering with synthesizers and a drum machine. Along with Lundon, Daly began writing songs using his high-tech toys.

All My Prayers Lyrics

China Crisis

Theres a lot in life I want to see
Theres a lot in life I want to believe
So I can make some sense of this imagery
Theres alot in life I know I need
Theres a lot in life I want to redeem
So I can shake this feeling of in a dream
I dont believe that all my prayers
Just disappear into thin air
I cant afford myself that vanity
I know I cant afford
In this world take my place
In this world take my place
Take my place
Everybodys talking over my head
Everybodys falling over themselves
All trying to make some sense of this imagery
Everybody gets a hand on the wheel
Everybodys going around and around
All trying to shake this feeling of in a dream
I dont believe that all my prayers
Just disappear into thin air
I cant afford myself that vanity
I know I cant afford
In this world take my place
In this world take my place
Take my place
Theres a lot in life weve got to respect
Theres a lot in life weve got to protect
Everybodys got asecond chance
Shake that feeling, shake that feeling
Take my place
