Know How To Pray

Well, I'm just sitting here, watching the sun come up
Thinking 'bout how and why I always seem to screw up
I stayed up all night, drinking again
I do it all the time 'cause you've gotta be on my mind
It seems to be the only way to ease the pain
When there's blood on the dash and marks in the lane
Another broken t-post and a fence laying down
Two whiskey bottles broken, lying on the ground

What does he got that I don't?
You say he will, but I say he won't
The climb is high, but trust me it gets steeper
I know how to pray
I just need a preacher

So go ahead and serenade me with those lies you do tell
As far as I'm concerned now, you can up and go to hell
Just keep on running from your shattered past
I was the only one there for you
When you broke off and ran with the wilder cast

And baby, I'd save you if it were only up to me
But it takes two not one, and it's a damn shame
A damn shame I can't set you free

What does he got that I don't?
You say he will, but I say he won't
The climb is high, but trust me it gets steeper
I know how to pray
I just need a preacher

Well, I've had doubts and I've had dreams
I thought I knew the things I need
Won't you reach out and take my hand
Yeah, the vices help me through
But they just ain't as sweet as you
Guess it's all part of a bigger plan

What does he got that I don't?
You say he will, but I say he won't
The climb is high, but trust me it gets steeper
I know how to pray
I just need a preacher

I know how to pray
I just need a preacher
