"Hail Mary" lyrics

"Hail Mary"

I only put my hands together for good music
I'm lying in a church by the lake
Across the street the lifeguards are Sunday drunk
Hungover anxious heroes today
I only see you here for the funerals
Was sweating right through this suit back in May
Real sorry for your loss you say every time
You still don't get I'm grieving you the same

After what you swore
You'd be to me
Why does seeing you
Take a tragedy?

(And a)
Phone call Hail Mary
To see if you care
My dad got sick why
Weren't you there?
Does it feel spiritual
Letting me down like you do?
Hello Hail Mary
I'm giving up on you

My brother Luis grew up by the charter school
He rocked a Jesus piece around his neck
Was jealous he had ghosts to believe in
Then you became my version of that

Except your ghost is not even haunting me
Why does seeing you take a tragedy?

(And a)
Phone call Hail Mary
To see if you care
My dad got sick why
Weren't you there?
Does it feel spiritual
Letting me down like you do?
Hello Hail Mary
I'm giving up on you

Suffering in silence
While I'm keeping the faith on a
Phone call Hail Mary
Suffering in silence
Your name pressed to my face on a
Phone call Hail Mary
Does it feel spiritual letting me down like you down
Hello Hail Mary I'm giving up on you
