If You're there, can You hear me now?
Or am I just talking to the empty ground
I've been trying to believe somehow
But You've been quiet while my world burned down
You took my father, took my home
Took the voices I still hear alone
Left me standing in the aftermath
Trying to make sense of a broken past
They say You've got a plan for me
But all I see is debris
If You're there, then why me?
Why take everything I need?
Why let me build a life so real
Just to watch it disappear from me?
You gave me love, You let it grow
Let me feel like I belonged
Then You ripped it from my hands
Like it was never mine at all
If You're there...
Why does everything go wrong?
I found her when I had nothing left
She looked at me like I was worth something
Said I was golden, said I was safe
Like I was finally more than suffering
We built a life inside these walls
Laughed like we'd outrun it all
But the same hands I held so tight
Let me go without a fight
They say everything happens for a reason
So tell me-what's the meaning?
If You're there, then why me?
Why give me what I can't keep?
Why let me feel like I was home
Then leave me drowning underneath?
You gave me love, You let it grow
Let me feel like I was strong
Then You tore it out again
Like it didn't belong
If You're there...
Why does everything go wrong?
I've buried more than most survive
I've carried pain my whole damn life
And I'm still here, still asking why
While everything I love just dies
You call this strength? You call this grace?
Or just a man You won't replace?
How much more am I supposed to take...
Before I finally break?
If You're there, then hear me now
I'm done pretending I know how
To keep believing in a light
That never shows up when it counts
You gave me love, then took it all
Left me with the echo of
Everything I thought was real
Everything I ever loved
If You're there...
Don't leave me like this alone
If You're there...
Why am I on my own?
