“Praying To A God” is a melancholy song about a girl spiraling into drug abuse as a result of growing up in a dysfunctional family. Her father is a drug addict, and the girl is trying to cope with her pain by going to town and taking pills. She keeps praying for something better but gets no response...
[Chorus]
She's praying to a God that won't talk back
Her faith is dying, the tear's a sign she's going off track
Keeps praying to a God that won't talk back
Won't talk back
Down on her knees here
Praying to a God that won't talk back (Hey)
[Verse 1]
Her momma believed that the devil had a dress on
So she's out on the town, tonight she got her best on
Her daddy believed that the needle was a highway
So she powders her nose, she's just looking for the right shade
[Pre-Chorus]
It gets hard to feel the friction underwater
And she's breaking down, tearing at the borders
In too deep to save herself
She takes a pill, it seems to help
Close her eyes and pictures standing at the altar
[Chorus]
She's praying to a God that won't talk back
Her faith is dying, the tear's a sign she's going off track
Keeps praying to a God that won't talk back
Won't talk back
Down on her knees here
Praying to a God that won't talk back
[Outro]
It gets hard to feel the friction underwater
And she's breaking down, tearing at the borders
In too deep to save herself
She takes a pill, it seems to help
Close her eyes and pictures standing at the altar
