Good Charlotte - Prayers Lyrics






Born on a lonely planet full of broken dreams
Where no one understands me
When I finally met an angel I didn't know what to say
She just held my hand

And we would lay awake at night
Looking at the stars, thinking of the ones we've lost
And wonder where they are
When we lit another candle she asked me who's to blame
Then she put her arms around me and held me to the flames

So why do we hurt each other?
We don't need the words for one an-others
Prayer
They don't mean a thing at all
Do they answer when you call?
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
Would you die for me today?
No, I just can't relate

None of this makes sense in this reality
God just leaves the room when I turn on my TV
I see a little girl who's crying 'cause she lost her family
All these strangers sending thoughts and prayers
She buried underneath

Why do we kill each other?
We can't feel the pain in one anothers

Prayer
They don't mean a thing at all
Do they answer when you call?
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
Would you die for me today?
No, I just can't relate

We're so far away from one another
We keep building walls between each others

Prayers
They don't mean a thing at all
Do they answer when you call?
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
Would you die for me today?
No, I just can't relate

(They don't mean a thing at all
Do they answer when you call?
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
Would you die for me today?)

    Good Charlotte has gotten all of us through tough times. Happy times. All of it. Let’s all be nicer to one another. Everyone has their battles. Love you all. :D peace and rock and roll.

  6. D.... C....

    I FUCKING ALWAYS LOVED GOOD CHARLOTTE. HOW DO THEY NOT HAVE MORE SUBSCRIBERS!?! growing up in school, my nickname was Nicole Richie, and my biggest crush was Joel Madden. So crazy that they're married with kids now. such an amazing group of people ❤️💗💙

  7. E.... ....

    Listened to this album almost everyday for a year (no skips). Never knew what they looked like or who they were (only knew 2 of their old songs). This is my first time watching one of their video and I just can't believe that there's actually 2 men singing. I couldn't even tell, and I still can't. This is incredible, keep up the good work. This album really helped me through hard times. Love.

  12. A.... a....

    That's society, people hurt an harm others when needs aren't being met threw a parent even a adopted one. That cannot Express in other form to say what's going on here they were taught this, in society parents need to teach there children how to Express in voice meaning vocally an yes there a difference between a need an want!!!!!!!! When people get hurt or harm ita because they person doing this wasn't taught correctly how to voice there in need or there needs aren't being met.

  13. A.... a....

    This song bugs me, it makes me feel sorta human again.

  14. A.... a....

    Both have 2 kids each both sets identical twins

  15. A.... a....

    They got fired by there own child!

  16. E.... F....

    Sad you professed Christ in your first album. .... then you let that go for fame and money. Prayers mean more than ANYTHING and so More than anything man can do. Apostasy ... sad.

  32. T.... T....

    Trying to survive and put food in your bellies while battling racism, they are the strongest example of American.

  33. D.... T....

    my dad said they've improved though

  55. M.... _....

    why you think being deported is the worst thing ever? unless we're talking about venezuela or guatemala, no other latin american country is a horrible place to be. You can still work here and have a nice life. Everything you can do in US, you can also do it here in latin america. Is they're choice if they want to go there illegallly instead of taking the long way and working hard to get there legally....

  56. M.... A....

    Legend 🙏🤘🤲👏

  57. A.... B....

    Peter replied and said repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins and you shall receive the gift of the holy Ghost acts 2 38

  58. A.... B....

    For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.

  59. A.... B....

    Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal

  60. A.... B....

    Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one.

  61. A.... L....

    Miss your old music😢

  62. j.... j....

    Put your money where your song is, but Illegal is illegal and an insult to all those who came to the US legally! Good Charlotte, Good Hypocrites, Good Bye, crawl back under the rock from whence you came.

  63. A.... B....

    I'm a simple man

    I love this band it seems like they've been blacklisted from the radio I don't get. I continue to support them by buying all their albums on vinyl and everytime I wear a Good Charlotte t-shirt I get so many comments.

  88. A.... M....

    I miss pierced up benji I hope I don’t be like him and remove my piercings they make me feel like me, I hate myself without em I’d hate to be like all my favourite band members and remove part of myself

  90. A.... M....

    Yeah prayers don't mean shit because look at how many people pray and look where it's got us all...God is fake there is no God there is only a creator and we were all givin free will to make this life what we want so the world is the way it is because we are all allowing it if we want it to change we are the ONLY ones who can change it
