I've been dead for days, I just feel like a black hole Got my head in space, I'm alone, where should I go? Everything we did is saved in a box full of Polaroids And when I drink, I don't think, so I call just to say hello Never calling you out Zip a lock on my mouth And I Never figured it out Love just went south And I I wish that I could turn my heart to stone So I don't have to feel what I feel when I'm alone I've been burning pavement Almost met my maker Livin' on a prayer Need to change your face from the screen on my phone Please pick up your stuff, so I can finally let you go Called in every favor Devil was my neighbor Livin' on a prayer Guess how many steps that I took 'Cause I wanted you to be the one That's how many times I was building you up So you could let me down, mmm Now I'm calling you out Rip the lock from my mouth And I I've really figured you out Love just went south And I I wish that I could turn my heart to stone So I don't have to feel what I feel when I'm alone I've been burning pavement Almost met my maker Livin' on a prayer (livin' on a prayer) Need to change your face from the screen on my phone Please pick up your stuff, so I can finally let you go Called in every favor Davil was my neighbor Livin' on a prayer (livin' on a prayer) Now I'm calling you out Rip the lock from my mouth And I (and I) I've really figured you out Love just went south And I I wish I didn't have to feel this low And I don't know if I will make it home To my mama's basement Livin' on a prayer, oh-oh
