Praying For Your Downfall Songtext
von Jensen McRae

You still get stoned to make a phone call
You′re still a bachelor with those blank walls
Keep telling people you're six feet tall
I′m finished praying for your downfall

Can't go on thinking it was my fault
And pushing pins into a cursed doll
Keep draining stellas and blaming your mom
I'm finished praying for your downfall

So many hours putting words in your mouth
To think I thought I almost figured you out
I can′t make nice, but I can make it make sense now
Da-da-da, da-da, da-dum, I don′t need to see you fall down
Da-da-da, da-da, da-dum, I don't need to see you fall down

Still think my sparkle makes you look small
Still think a fight can make a love false
Just keep doing whatever you want
I′m finished praying for your downfall


I can't keep begging for what I lost
And cursing tough love from a good god
Keep whistling, boy, I was never your dog
But I′m done praying for your downfall

So many hours putting words in your mouth
To think I thought I almost figured you out
I can't make nice, but I can make it make sense now
Da-da-da, da-da, da-dum
I don′t need to see you fall down

So many lost boys that I swore could be found
To think I thought I was swimming while I drowned
Can't say it cured me, but I'll say that it counts
Da-da-da, da-da, da-dum, I don′t need to see you fall down

I can′t keep praying, I, I can't keep praying (I can′t keep)
I can't keep praying for your downfall
I can′t keep praying, I, I can't keep praying
I can′t keep praying for your downfall

So many hours putting words in your mouth
To think I thought I almost figured you out
I can't make nice but I can make it make sense now
Da-da-da, da-da, da-dum, don't need to see you fall down
I′ll be the bigger man now, don′t need to see you fall down
