(Verse 1) Prayers whispered in the night Tears that fall, unseen by light A heart that aches, a spirit worn Faith tested, hope forlorn

(Chorus) Why, oh why, do the righteous fall? While evil seems to stand so tall If You're listening, hear my call Why does darkness seem to enthrall?

(Verse 2) Promises spoken, left unkept Dreams shattered, hopes swept In this struggle, I'm barely holding on My strength is fading, my spirit's almost gone

(Chorus) Why, oh why, do the righteous fall? While evil seems to stand so tall If You're listening, hear my call Why does darkness seem to enthrall?

(Bridge) Doubt creeps in, a chilling breeze Whispering lies, planting seeds Is there purpose in this pain? Or is it all just part of some cruel game?

(Chorus) Why, oh why, do the righteous fall? While evil seems to stand so tall If You're listening, hear my call Why does darkness seem to enthrall?

(Outro) Screaming into the void, my voice unheard A wounded soul, longing for a word But in the silence, I'm left to wonder why In this darkness, I question, I cry
