praying to a god

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, 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, 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, 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, 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, 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, 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
