Praying For Me

(You were never praying for me)
The wholeworld turned and time stood still
You took my hand and things got real
You looked at me right in my eyes
And swore you'd never make me cry
You hurt so many on your way
And somehow I still chose to stay
Stood by you when no one would
And called your chaos something good
(Something good)

For not being an actor
You really love a stage
For not being a play
You sure love playing games

Slept with your ex, had a girlfriend too
And a stranger in New York
Drunk in your hotel room
Told me I was your twin flame
You're meant to be
While you were out there praying for me
You handed me a future in Mother's Day card
Said you never miss another
Birthday that broke my heart
You swore to God, but you play
The part with holy hands in a sinner's heart
You swore to God so faithfully
I know we both know
You were never praying for me

Call it closure, I call it spin
Your version starts where your guilt begins
You say you cared
You say you tried
But baby, love and lies can't coincide
You wore that halo made of tin
But it's caving in, it's caving in

You created the chaos
You lost control
You love the payoff
But that won't make you whole

Slept with your ex, had a girlfriend too
And a stranger in New York
Drunk in your hotel room
Told me I was your twin flame
You're meant to be
While you were out there praying for me
You handed me a future in Mother's Day card
Said you never miss another
Birthday that broke my heart
You swore to God, but you play
The part with holy hands in a sinner's heart
You swore to God so faithfully
I know we both know
You were never praying for me

You twisted the story
Rewrote the scene
Made yourself sound so serene
But if anyone's searching for honesty
They can just come and ask me

Slept with your ex, had a girlfriend too
And a stranger in New York
Drunk in your hotel room
Told me I was your twin flame
You're meant to be
While you were out there praying for me
You handed me a future in Mother's Day card
Said you never miss another
Birthday that broke my heart
You swore to God, but you play
The part with holy hands in a sinner's heart
You swore to God so faithfully
I know we both know
You were never praying for me

Said I was your twin flame
But someone that they could never be mine
