The Decemberists, Sucker's Prayer (new song), live at the Fox Theater (Oakland, CA), 8/17/2017 (HD)

The Decemberists play an unreleased song called A Sucker's Prayer live in concert at their Fox Theater show in Oakland, CA on August 17, 2017.
Sucker's Prayer lyrics:
I was not ready for the road
I was so discontent to wear that heavy load
And so I got down on my knees
Made a sucker's prayer
Like Rimbaud to Baudelaire before
And when nobody did respond
I took my glasses off and went to find a pond
Stuffing rocks into the pockets of my pants
And when I waded in
Those currents carried them away
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
I've been so long lonely and it's getting me down
I wanna throw my body in the river and drown
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
So if you're lost along the way
And if you're thinking that will always be the case
Won't you listen to my plea?
You'll make a sucker's prayer
Just go and leave it that-a-way
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
I've been so long lonely and it's getting me down
I wanna throw my body in the river and drown
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
Sucker's Prayer written by Colin Meloy
