Pray for me

Pray for me

There’s something I’ve been meaning to ask you

Something on the tip of my tongue

Something I saw in my old man when I was young

(Pray for me)

Will the water wash away the blood

And everything that I’ve done?

How can I save my name when the fire comes?

(Pray for me)

I wanna make it to heaven

Before the devil knows I’m dead

I don’t know how to tell you

But where you’re going when you die

They don’t let the bad folk like me inside

(Pray for me)

I know I promised forever

But forever is a long, long time

Can you stand to be alone in your afterlife?

(Pray for me)

I wanna make it to heaven

Before the devil knows I’m dead

I wanna make it to heaven

Before the devil knows I’m dead

I am simple

My hands are quiet

I’ve paid for what I did in the night

I am simple

My hands are quiet

I’ve paid for what I did in the night

I wanna make it to heaven

Before the devil knows I’m dead

I wanna make it to heaven

Before the devil knows I’m dead

I wanna make it to heaven

Before the devil knows I’m dead

I wanna make it to heaven

Before the devil knows I’m dead
