Pushing It Down and Praying
Lyrics of Pushing It Down and Praying by Lizzy McAlpine
Verse
I′m in bed, layin' down, naked
He′s inside of me
I love him, kiss his mouth, prayin'
He can't see what I see
Pre-chorus
When I close my eyes
You replace him
Wearin′ no disguise
You erase him
Chorus
I wanna feel guilty (mm)
I wanna feel that it′s wrong (mm)
I wanna know peace again
Wanna sing a different song (mm)
Chorus
I want you to need me (mm)
I need to want somethin' more (mm)
He gives what he can
But now I don′t know what he's givin′ for
Verse
I'm in bed, layin′ down, naked
You're inside of me
I love him, kiss his mouth, sayin'
"Oh yeah, baby, touch and touch and touch and touch me"
Chorus
I wanna feel guilty
I wanna feel that it′s wrong
I wanna know peace again
Wanna sing a different song
Chorus
I want you to need me (need me)
I need to want somethin′ more (somethin' more)
He gives what he can
But now I don′t know what he's giving for
Bridge
Softer, harder, in between
You know just how to get to me
He is stable, you are deep
I know just how to get what I need
Outro
I wanna feel guilty
I wanna feel that it′s wrong
I wanna know peace again
Wanna be singin' a different song
Outro
It′s only a question
If somebody brings it up
So, I'm pushin' it down and prayin′
He won′t see it when I come
Outro
I'm pushin′ it down and prayin'
