Prayers Fall On Deaf Ears

from Fall In Berkeley by Better Promises

lyrics

If I'm falling in love again
Its probably a big mistake
But you made my knees weak made me double take made my heart skip a beat Made my hands shake
Made me talk in clichés
Straight up stupefied my brain
I wish I knew what to say

I swear I've seen you twelve times today
While walking between my classes
Realistically it's probably just another random blonde girl with bold rimmed hipster glasses
No one doesn't not like you
If that's a compliment at all
I wonder if I'm day dreaming or if that's your voice I'm hearing while I'm walking down the hall
I tell myself it will be different this time
I'm totally lying
But I'll say whatever it takes to make me stay okay
Gotta keep my attitude up for one more day
Come on why don't you stay

I prayed for the first time in a long time
Not because I'm ready to repent
But because I'm out of money
I don't have enough to pay for booze and rent
God would you give me, A big old money tree
It'll make me happy, then I'll think about loving you with my whole heart
This is a conditional promise
And even if you help me out I'm still not committed to the second part
Now while we're on the subject of your generosity
Can you cast a spell to make this girl fall in love with me
I'm not asking too much, I just miss having a crutch
The feel of a woman's touch to make me blush
Cause we all know I'm too weak to walk on my own
So come on god, do things my way

I promise if our positions switched
I'd give you everything that you wished
I wish you were as nice as I am god
But I think all the good opportunities have been missed
For you to prove you love me
When I was crying out in the rain
Convincing myself to abstain from drinking my problems away
When I had my arms spread wide
Screaming, God give my a sign
Left staring at the sky
Still waiting on your reply

Come on god, I need you today
