Born on a lonely planet, full of broken dreams Where no one understands me When I finally met an angel, I didn't know what to say She just held my hand We would lay awake at night, looking at the stars Thinking of the ones we've lost and wonder where they are When we lit another candle, she asked me who's to blame Then she put her arms around me and held me to the flame So why do we hurt each other? We don't need the words for one another's Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all Do they answer when you call? These prayers, when you don't mean what you say Would you die for me today? Now I just can't relate None of this makes sense in this reality God just leaves the room when I turn on my TV I see a little girl who's crying 'cause she lost her family All these strangers sending thoughts and prayers, she's buried underneath Why do we kill each other? We can't feel the pain in one another's Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all Do they answer when you call? These prayers, when you don't mean what you say Would you die for me today? Now I just can't relate We're so far away from one another We keep building walls between each other's Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all Do they answer when you call? These prayers, when you don't mean what you say Would you die for me today? Now I just can't relate Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all Do they answer when you call? These prayers, when you don't mean what you say Would you die for me today?
