Praying For Something by David Snyder

PRAYING FOR SOMETHING
BY DAVID SNYDER

V1

I am walking down an empty street
Where my whole world used to be
Is the problem out there somewhere, y’all
Or is the problem inside of me
Is it something that I said one time
Or something I left undone
I wish that I could say I’m sorry
To every place and everyone

CH

So I am praying for something
But I do it know its name
While I am waiting for the sunrise
While I am waiting for the rain
I am not ready to surrender
To my anger and my pain
So I am praying for something
But I do not know it’s name
So I am praying for something
But I do not know it’s name

V2

Now I’m trapped inside a burning world
That used to hold my dreams
And I know that all our secret wounds
Are deeper than they may seem
Is it something I allowed one time
When I turned the other way
I cannot speak my answer though
Cause I don’t know what to say

CH

So I am praying for something
But I do it know its name
While I am waiting for the sunrise
While I am waiting for the rain
I am not ready to surrender
To my anger and my pain
So I am praying for something
But I do not know it’s name
So I am praying for something
But I do not know it’s name

Bridge:

Is it something that I said one time
Or something I left undone
I wish that I could say I’m sorry
To every place and everyone

CH

So I am praying for something
But I do it know its name
While I am waiting for the sunrise
While I am waiting for the rain
I am not ready to surrender
To my anger and my pain
So I am praying for something
But I do not know it’s name
So I am praying for something
But I do not know it’s name
