silent heaven, silent god

(Verse 1) I see them rise, built on lies, yet crowned by You, While I’m left with nothing, what did I do? My prayers hit the ceiling, they don’t break through, Is this what it means to be faithful to You? I’ve kept my soul clean, but You still turn away, While the sinners You bless live free every day. I’ve bled for Your truth, but where’s my reward? I’m starting to wonder, where are You, Lord? (Pre-Chorus) How can You watch as they bathe in their sin? While I drown in silence, can’t even begin. You lift them so high, but leave me to fall, Is this what You meant when You said You loved all? (Chorus) God, where are You when I need You most? Why do You bless the wicked and leave me as a ghost? I’ve carried the light, but the dark never fades, Is Your mercy only for those who betray? The sinners are laughing, they’re winning this game, While I call Your name, but You never came. I’m crying for justice, but You look away, Do You see my suffering or do You just stray? (Verse 2) I’ve watched them rise with blood on their hands, While I’m left alone, with no strength to stand. I gave You my trust, You gave me the night, Is this the price for walking in light? They spit on Your name, but You give them the crown, While I’m on my knees, waiting to drown. You say You’re just, but what does that mean? When all I feel is broken and unseen. (Pre-Chorus) You say You’re near, but I’m left in the cold, Watching the greedy take everything gold. Is this how You rule, with silence and scorn? While I die believing, and they’re reborn? (Chorus) God, where are You when I need You most? Why do You bless the wicked and leave me as a ghost? I’ve carried the light, but the dark never fades, Is Your mercy only for those who betray? The sinners are laughing, they’re winning this game, While I call Your name, but You never came. I’m crying for justice, but You look away, Do You see my suffering or do You just stray? (Bridge) If faith is the fire, then where is the flame? I screamed to the sky, but You never came. I’ve followed Your word, but it led me to loss, Is this the reward for bearing Your cross? (Chorus) God, why do You bless the broken and blind? While I’m stuck here, losing my mind? Is my heart not enough, or am I just too weak? I’ve been searching for peace, but it’s only defeat. The sinners are laughing, drunk on their win, While I’m drowning in waters I can’t even swim. I’m pleading for answers, but You give me none, How much longer until I’m undone? (Outro) I thought I’d find peace if I stayed true, But all I found was the absence of You. Maybe I’m cursed, or maybe I’m blind, But I’m tired of seeking what I’ll never find. God, will You answer or will You let me die, Or will I fade away, still asking why?
