[Title: Tangled Up Prayer]

[Verse 1]

The clock says 10:13

I'm in my room, I haven't been seen

My phone is glowing, the only light

Watching the cam, in the black-and-white

He's finally home, he's in the door

"What was he thinking?"

I'm just not sure

I should go out there, make a scene

But I'm frozen here, staring at the screen.

[Pre-Chorus]

My son is home, he's safe, I guess

But my mind is still a tangled mess

This whole damn house is full of stress

But you're the one, Maurice... I confess

Consuming my every single move

Got a troubled home I'm supposed to soothe.

[Chorus]

And I should be praying

I should be in the bible, searching for that healing verse

I should be mending

Every broken piece before it gets worse

I'm worried 'bout my son, and the man he's gonna be

But you're the one consuming me.

And all I really want

Is a kiss that we haven't even shared...

And I'm so scared.

[Verse 2]

Now it's 2:13, I'm awake again

Only slept three hours, and then

This heat started rising up in me

Thinking... "When will I finally get my love?"

Are you my love, Maurice? The one I'm dreaming of?

Are you praying for me?

I know you're in the Word, so deep

It's a promise that you keep

And I just want to see you in your secret place

The one where you find all your grace.

[Chorus]

And I should be praying

I should be in the bible, searching for that healing verse

I should be mending

Every broken piece before it gets worse

I'm worried 'bout my son, and the man he's gonna be

But you're the one consuming me.

And all I really want

Is a kiss that we haven't even shared...

And I'm so scared.

[Bridge]

My son's in his room, the bible's in my hand

But I'm in a fantasy you'd understand

This isn't healing, this isn't grace

This is just the image of your face

This is just a want, a desperate-to-feel

It's a fantasy, but this worry is real.

[Final Chorus]

And I should be praying

I should be in the bible, searching for that healing verse

I should be mending

Every broken piece before it gets worse

I'm worried 'bout my son, and the man he's gonna be

But you're the one consuming me.

And all I really want

Is a kiss that we haven't even shared...

And I'm so scared.

[Outro]

10:13...

A troubled home...

2:13...

A kiss I've never known...

I should be praying.

(But I'm thinking of you...)

I should be praying.
