Empty Prayers |
I tried my best to keep you here |
But it’s hard to hold a shadow |
You said goodbye but I couldn’t hear |
Too busy praying for a miracle |
And you left me on my knees |
You just walked out the door |
You didn’t even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for |
You to love me I prayed about us every night |
Boy I know you had to hear me You could’ve stopped me then and told the truth |
But instead you pulled the pillow over your head |
And you left me on my knees |
You just walked out the door |
You didn’t even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for |
You to love me You should’ve told me it was useless, that I was praying empty prayers |
But you hopped in your car, pulled out your keys |
While you were leaving, I was begging God for you to love me And I know that He had something better to do Than to sit and listen to a broken-hearted fool |
Could’ve been saving the world from a tragedy, but instead He was listening |
To me |
I was asking, begging for a sign to bring comfort to this lonely heart of Mine |
But apparently you’re not what I need |
I guess you walking out was Him answering |
You left me on my knees |
You just walked out the door |
You didn’t even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for |
You to love me I tried my best to keep you here |
But it’s hard to hold a shadow |
