Lyrics for Song: Empty Prayers
Lyrics for Album: My Life II - The Journey Continues (Act 1) [2011]
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 put a 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, baby
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
