You were out of my league, something that you already knew.
Still there’s a couple things that I’m better at than you. 
Like keeping a vow or telling a simple truth
[speed this up so. Com t takes the same space as previous lines ]
And not sleeping with your best friend, while you're going off the deep end 
And playing my partner for a fool 

Don’t believe in the mercy of angels floating above
Too many prayers went unanswered, and all I ever asked for was love
It was alI ever asked for


Be careful what you wish for, the devils in the smallest print 
You came across all sugar and spice, but no one’s that innocent
Sometimes the worst sinners like to dress themselves as saints 
Judas in my bed, a kiss to seal my fate

Don’t believe in the mercy of angels floating above
Too many prayers went unanswered, and all I ever asked for was love
It was all I ever asked for


Never seen no heavenly providence, compassion or grace
The core tenets of my lack of faith

Don’t believe in the mercy of angels floating above
Too many prayers went unanswered, and all I ever asked for was love
It was all I ever asked for
