I pray for you, even though I know you don't hear me

I don't want to hurt you, even though I know

That's all you're capable of, at least it seems

And I refuse to let my disappointment show

 

Yes, it really does hurt me

That you never even tried to figure out

What's there past all that you see

But, I won't let it be allowed

 

I won't let you close enough to hurt me

Because your mentality is pivoted in the wrong way

Scratching at that familiar ache within this chaotic sea

I don't know you either, so please don't stay

 

You're the absolute worst; and your ego too fluffed

You don't know anything about beauty

It's more than skin deep y'know, and not enough

To sustain any of that truth in me

 

Somehow, I still keep praying for you

Hoping one day that God will let you see

The absolute diamond that is the truth

Maybe then, I will let you get close to me
