guidance

i spoke to god even though he don't care how i feel

i sent him letters yet i found them returned and sealed

all of my prayers left unanswered yet still i would kneel

i spoke to god even though i don't know if he's real

i heard that evil is silent

i know my demons stay quiet

until i ask for compliance

that's when they claw and they riot

so keep me awake

even though i

wish to escape

from these thoughts

i ponder and pray

even though i've

lost all my faith

i will survive

i watched below as i saw my son fall in a field

i let his heart fall apart then i taught it to heal

i let him ask me for guidance

i met his questions with silence

hiding the answers inside him

i always knew he would find it

so keep me awake

even though i

wish to escape

from these thoughts

i ponder and pray

even though i've

lost all my faith

i will survive

he placed the earth in the palm of my hands

asked me to fix all the problems it has

now i think i finally understand

so keep me awake

keep me awake

keep me awake

even though i've

lost all my faith

keep me awake

even though i

wish to escape

from these thoughts

i ponder and pray

even though i've

lost all my faith

i will survive
