I'm still lost in the confusion- I'm trying to find my way,

Unsure if I could call on you- I don't know what to say.

I don't understand my life- It's like I have nothing,

I'm locked away inside myself- But am I searching for something?

Or am I just hiding- Am I running from the pain?

Dear Lord if you're listening- I can't play this game.

And I'm scared to say your name- I'm not the same as I used to be,

What did you do to me?- The world that I now see seems new to me.

I feel that I have an understanding- But I still don't understand,

I don't understand who I am- I'm unsure if I can stand.

On my own two feet- Without you helping me,

I'm just hoping through all this- That you still are helping me.

At one point I gave up- And I still don't know if you "are",

Don't know if you're real- But I don't know who I am any more.

I know I seem to come to you whenever I need help,

But I have no other choice- Lord I have no one else.

It's just me by myself- Dealing with all the pain,

I travel alone- Getting drenched by all the rain.

I come to a crossroads and I stop- Don't know which way to go,

People tell me to believe in you- But it's like you refuse to show.

Me anything of importance- Why do you turn your back?

What did I do to make you treat me like that?

If my eyes were closed help me open them- Show me the light,

'Cuz all I see is darkness- And a pointlessly lived life.

I speak with no voice- I see with blind eyes,

I hear with deaf ears- Yet I still speak truth- And see and hear lies.

The road I walk- Is the path less traveled,

Everyday it's the same war- But I fight a different battle.

And every day I hear the sound of a different gavel,

As the judgements are made- Sentenced to life- Lonely nights and dark days.

Lord you took my brother- So must I suffer- For him to see the light?

If that's the case then give me pain- But just let me life my life.

Show me something, give me a sign- Just show me that you exist,

If you don't, than how can I believe- When all I see, is this.
