Praying

I'm holding on tightly To these broken vows Holding on closely To these unfaithful souls I'm holding on tearfully To these painful memories I stood tall for you all I vowed to never bleed in hate Stood tall thanks to love I vowed to never fall into darkness I stood tall for myself I'm on my knees now Praying to a god that doesn't exist On my knees weeping Praying for an end to come I'm on my knees bleeding Praying for this pain to burn away
