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 |
