God can you hear me

Lyrics

I’m wearing a mask that I painted myself, But the paint is starting to crack. I’m pouring my poison in elegant cups, Just to keep the demons at bay on the track. I’m a three-way war inside of one skin: The ghost of my past is screaming "you'll lose," The man that I am is trapped in the mud, And the man I want to be is refusing to choose. I’m lonely in crowded rooms, drowning in noise, With a head full of thunder and lightning. I’ve mastered the art of the silent collapse— And honestly? That’s what is frightening. Pre-Chorus I’m not too proud to admit it no more: I’m flat on my face on the kitchen floor. The gravity of my gravity is pulling me down, Is anybody listening in this ghost town? Chorus God, are You there? Or am I screaming at walls? My lungs are on fire, I’m waiting for the rain to fall. I’m barely breathing, I’m covered in the dust of my defeat, I’ve got nothing left to offer, I can't even stand on my feet. If You’re the healer, then look at my scars. If You’re the light, then why is it so dark? Can You hear me? Can You hear me? Verse 2 I took a detour through organized pews, Looking for truth, but they sold me the news. They’re rewriting scriptures to fit in the trend, Trading the cross for a fair-weather friend. An island of sugar-coated, beautiful lies, But it doesn't stop the tears from burning my eyes. If I’m made in Your image, then explain the design— Why do I hate the reflection that's mine? I walk through the valley where the shadows are deep, And the devil is counting the secrets I keep. But I’m drawing a line in the dirt with my hands: I don’t want religion. I just want to stand. Bridge (Beat drops out — just a quiet, heavy heartbeat) I believe You exist... I just hate how this feels. I’m tired of fighting for things that aren't real. So I'm breaking the chains, let the shackles just rust, I’m trading my pride for a handful of dust. In the name of the Son, let the fever depart— Reconstruct the ruins of this shattered heart. Amen. Chorus God, are You there? Or am I screaming at walls? My lungs are on fire, I’m waiting for the rain to fall. I’m barely breathing, I’m covered in the dust of my defeat, I’ve got nothing left to offer, I can't even stand on my feet. If You’re the healer, then look at my scars. If You’re the light, then why is it so dark? Can You hear me? Can You hear me? Outro Give me a sign... Just a sliver of gold in the dark. A whisper in the static. I’m still here. Are You?
