Prayer In C
Lilly Wood & The Prick Robin Schulz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, our hands will get more wrinkled
And our hair, it will be grey
Don't think I could forgive you
And see the children are starving
And their houses were destroyed
Don't think they could forgive you

Hey, when seas will cover lands
And when men will be no more
Don't think you can forgive you
Yeah, when there'll just be silence
And when life will be over
Don't think you will forgive you

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, our hands will get more wrinkled
And our hair, it will be grey
Don't think I could forgive you
And see the children are starving
And their houses were destroyed
Don't think they could forgive you

Ey, when seas will cover lands
And when men will be no more
Don't think you can forgive you
Yeah, when there'll just be silence




And when life will be over
Don't think you will forgive you

@adrenjones9301

@@VilkasPilkas Sweet! Here´s some worthless advice:

Always question what you see, most facts in your life are gonna be lies or worse, half truth

Be kind, but focus on yourself. Its good to be nice to People, but the better you do as an individual the better society as a whole will prosper.

Work out. Your Body is the only thing you truly own. Make it into something you can be proud of.

Its Worthless advice because you wont listen.
