Wasted Prayers

I don't know why it took your goodbye To get me down on my knees again Why every headache with every sunrise Turns to foldin' up these hands Maybe it's the Jack that I've been slingin' Maybe somethin' in the smoke that I've been breathin' in That always brings me back to the feelin' Of hopin' and wishin' That you'll come back and just like that We'll fall again, forget the fact We've both tried a million times But you and I don't work like that Takes a pull with another shot Then bow my head and talk to God Wake up sober and you're not there I've been prayin' wasted prayers All these wasted prayers Nothin' puts me in the past like Puttin' down this empty glass, I Could handle this thing with grace But I prefer to learn the hard way Sip, sippin' it down Livin' it up Learnin' my way 'round Someone I don't even love, wishin' You'll come back and just like that We'll fall again, forget the fact We've both tried a million times But you and I don't work like that Takes a pull with another shot Then bow my head and talk to God Wake up sober and you're not there I've been prayin' wasted prayers All these wasted prayers I've been sip, sippin' it down Livin' it up Askin' my way 'round To the angels above if You'll come back and just like that We'll fall again, forget the fact? We've both tried a million times But you and I don't go like that Takes a pull with another shot Then bow my head and talk to God Wake up sober and you're not there I've been prayin' wasted prayers All these wasted prayers, yeah Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh (Sip, sippin' it down, livin' it up) Oh, I've been prayin', I've been prayin' Wasted prayers All these wasted prayers
