Is this what you wanted, nobody won
And everything broken before it even begun
Is this what your dream held when you first held me
Did somebody tell you what a little child needs
Did somebody Say A Prayer for me
Wish I'd do better than anyone here
Wish I'd make something out of life
Wish I'd make somebody proud
Why can't I go now and never look back
Do you suddenly need me to keep your life on track
You've done nothing, nothing, nothing worth anything right
Holding me down in your shadow, keeping me away from the light
From someone who'd Say A Prayer for me
Someone who knows how to get out of here
Someone who'd gladly step aside
To let me have some kind of life
Is this what you wanted, oh mother of mine
Did you ever listen when your little baby cried
Can somebody Say A Prayer for me
Wish I'd do better than anyone here
Wish I'd make something out of life
Wish I'd make somebody proud
Is this what you wanted, oh mother of mine
Did you ever listen when your little baby cried
And everything broken before it even begun
Is this what your dream held when you first held me
Did somebody tell you what a little child needs
Did somebody Say A Prayer for me
Wish I'd do better than anyone here
Wish I'd make something out of life
Wish I'd make somebody proud
Why can't I go now and never look back
Do you suddenly need me to keep your life on track
You've done nothing, nothing, nothing worth anything right
Holding me down in your shadow, keeping me away from the light
From someone who'd Say A Prayer for me
Someone who knows how to get out of here
Someone who'd gladly step aside
To let me have some kind of life
Is this what you wanted, oh mother of mine
Did you ever listen when your little baby cried
Can somebody Say A Prayer for me
Wish I'd do better than anyone here
Wish I'd make something out of life
Wish I'd make somebody proud
Is this what you wanted, oh mother of mine
Did you ever listen when your little baby cried
