I only pray for certain things
And most of them involve you
I pray that my dad won't read my texts
Because he wouldn't understand you and I
I pray that my dad won't read between the lines
Because then I'd be banned from talking to you
I pray that no harm will come to you
Because I'd be lost without you at my side
I pray that we'll be left alone
Because I'm scared of people interfering
I pray that I'll never make you upset
Because I can't stand the thought of it
But I don't even know what I pray to
Because the cosmos have given up on me

I pray that no harm will come to you
Because I'd be lost without you at my side
I pray that we'll be left alone
Because I'm scared of people interfering
I pray that I'll never make you upset
Because I can't stand the thought of it
But I don't even know what I pray to
Because the cosmos have given up on me
