[Verse 1]
You look beautiful, but you feel so alone
Why are you going to a party that way? Hmm
I could let it play through another show
But I don't want to hear you're sorry again
'Cause I'm starting to think when I'm not by your side
That you're telling me, telling me lies
[Chorus]
You can act like nothing's wrong
In a place you don't belong
Up until you walk into the light, whoa-oh
But you can't tell where you are
Probably tripping over stars
Or are you stumbling down the boulevard
Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight
[Post-Chorus]
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
(Know you're not that innocent)
[Verse 2]
I know I'm the only one that you wanna touch
But you know you've been a handful
And I can handle a lot, yeah
I'ma turn it off 'cause I care too much
I heard you say you're being careful, I know you're not
Because I know you don't know when to stop
[Chorus]
You can act like nothing's wrong
In a place you don't belong
Up until you walk into the light, whoa-oh
But you can't tell where you are
Probably tripping over stars
Or are you stumbling down the boulevard
Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight
[Post-Chorus]
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
I know you're not that innocent
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
You know it turns me on
[Chorus]
You can act like nothing's wrong
In a place you don't belong
Up until you walk into the light, whoa-oh
But you can't tell where you are
Probably tripping over stars
Or are you stumbling down the boulevard
Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight
[Post-Chorus]
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
(Deep down, deep down, you know)
Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight

Vocalist Matt McAndrew commented on the press release:
“Prayers” seemed like the best single to lead with from the upcoming LP. It’s flashy, upbeat, and comes in swinging. There are so many different vibes on the album that it would be impossible to pick one that represents the record as a whole, b...
