Praying To a God

She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Her faith is dying, her tears a sign, she's going off track
She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Won't talk back
Down on her knees said praying to a God
Who won't talk back

Her momma believed that the devil had her dress on
So she's out on the town tonight, she got her best on
Her daddy believed that the needle was a highway
So she powders her nose, she's just looking for direction
It gets hard to feel the friction underwater
As she's breaking down, she's tearing out the borders
And too deep to save herself
She takes a pill that seems to help
Close her eyes, forget she standing at the alter

She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Her faith is dying, her tears a sign, she's going off track
She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Won't talk back
Down on her knees said praying to a God
Who won't talk back
She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Her faith is dying, her tears a sign, she's going off track
She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Won't talk back
Down on her knees said praying to a God
Who won't talk back

Her momma believed that the devil had her dress on
So she's out on the town tonight with even less on
Her daddy believed that the needle was a highway
So she powders her nose
Cause the fire numbs the night pains
It gets hard to feel the friction underwater
As she's breaking down, she's tearing out the borders
And too deep to save herself
She takes a pill that seems to help
Close her eyes, forget she standing at the alter

She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Her faith is dying, her tears a sign, she's going off track
She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Won't talk back
Down on her knees said praying to a God
Who won't talk back
She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Her faith is dying, her tears a sign, she's going off track
She's praying to a God who won't talk back
Won't talk back
Down on her knees said praying to a God
Who won't talk back
