Lyrics

Lord tell me why
Why is it so cold
If Heaven's somewhere up there
Why do the ones we love keep walking out the door
So cold
Quarter past three
Staring holes into the ceiling
Trapped inside these four walls
Drowning in the feeling
Too many names
Too many people that I trusted
Watching every single bond end up broken down and rusted
I learned real quick that love don't mean they stay
Forever only lasts until somebody turns away
You can give somebody shelter
They can still chase the rain
Hand them your heart
They just hand you back the pain
I watched I love you turn into I can't do this
Watched people I would die for act like I don't exist
Some found another bed
Some found another reason
Left me with a silence that's colder than the season
I've been talking to the ceiling like You're listening above
Trying to hear an answer through the wreckage of this love
If You hear me through the dark
Give me something I can hold
'Cause I'm tired of asking Heaven why the world down here is cold
God if love is real
Why does it hurt this bad
Why give me memories of things I'll never get back
Why let me give my heart if You knew they'd choose to go
Why leave me holding pieces they were never gonna hold
I've cried in empty rooms where nobody knew my name
Watched everybody leave while I was left to take the blame
They found somewhere warmer while I froze here all alone
Lord I'm begging You
WHY IS IT SO COLD
Why is it so cold
Why is it so cold
If Heaven's where the broken go
Why am I still broken here below
Standing in the rain
Hands open to the sky
Watching people pick another road and pass me by
Phone screen lighting up
Then dying in my palm
Waiting on a callback that is never gonna come
I've seen good hearts shatter
Seen strong minds fold
Seen people choose a shadow over somewhere safe and warm
I ain't perfect
Got wounds and mistakes
Carried heavy burdens and a whole lot of aches
No loud arguments
No big dramatic scene
Just a slow quiet fade off the edge of the screen
One day we make plans to build something to last
Next day I'm just sitting with a phantom from the past
If I'm always just the option that they throw away
I'm gonna lock the front door and stop asking them to stay
They can choose another road
Another life
Another plan
I won't let abandonment decide the kind of man I am
God if love is real
Why does it hurt this bad
Why give me memories of things I'll never get back
Why let me give my heart if You knew they'd choose to go
Why leave me holding pieces they were never gonna hold
They chose another path
Chose another high
Chose a brand new life and let the old one die
They're laughing somewhere else while I'm stuck in the cold
So Lord I'm begging You
WHY WASN'T I ENOUGH
Maybe You were there when I thought You disappeared
Maybe every goodbye wasn't proof I wasn't worth keeping here
Maybe some people leave 'cause they don't know how to stay
Maybe I don't have to carry what they chose to throw away
I can't make them come back
I can't make them choose me
They packed up and left
They picked someone else
They picked anywhere else
And I'm still standing right here
In the silence
Still here
God if love is real
Stop letting people walk out
Stop leaving me alone with all this fucking doubt
All these scars can turn into a vision that is beautiful
If I take what broke me down and make sure that I stay whole
They can choose another road
Another heart
Another life
They can walk away and leave me stranded in the night
No one's walking back across the hallway floor
No one's knocking softly on the heavy front door
They made their choice and left me in the dark
AND THEY NEVER LOOKED BACK
Lord tell me why
Why is it so cold
