Claire Lyrics - Singles - Evan Taubenfeld

Her dad does time for robbing banks 

Her shit-head boyfriend is hooked on meth 

And while her bestfriend's busy getting laid 

Her mom took the kids and left without her 

Now 

I know you're trying to keep your head up 

I know you're trying to kill the pain 

But you gotta stop 

There's better ways 

Claire 

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for you 

So please don't let me down 

Claire 

Would you get better? won't you get better? 

I can't put you in the ground 

If you hear me now, if you understand 

Claire 

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for you 

So please don't let me down 

She don't care what goes in her veins 

Cause it makes her feel numb 

She do this bullshit everyday 

Till she stop waking up 

You know she could've been anything 

She could've literally had it all 

And now she just can't stop 

And now she just can't stop, so 

Claire 

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for you 

So please don't let me down 

Claire 

Would you get better? won't you get better? 

I can't put you in the ground 

If you hear me now, if you understand 

Claire 

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for you 

So please don't let me down 

And I keep dragging her by myself, by myself... 

Claire 

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for you 

So please don't let me down 

Claire 

Would you get better? when you get better 

we can take you out 

If you hear me now, if you understand 

Claire 

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for you 

[whispering] 

So please don't let me down 

Claire 

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for you 

So please don't let me down 

Claire 

Won't you get better? hope you get better 

I can't put you in the ground
