Why do I wake up for no apparent reason
Why does the pain give with no reservation
Why do I ask but never get an answer
Why with Your presence do I feel hesitation
So if it happens now in the dead of the night
I'm here and I'm willing to turn wrongs into right
Here in the darkness I'll wait
And ask are You trying to tell me something
Am I to say something to You
I can only stand so long in Your silence
Before my hidden nightmares come true
Before my hidden nightmares come true
Come true
Maybe I haven't been religious lately
Maybe my glass heart is finally tainted
Maybe I've been wrong for twenty two years
Or maybe I just haven't been paying attention
Are You trying to tell me something
Am I to say something to You
I can only stand so long in Your silence
Before my hidden nightmares come true
Before my hidden nightmares come true
Come true
Take a breath, look up my child
Do you not see, I've been here this whole time
I've been here this whole time
Set down your list, look in my eyes
Let go of hurt, and soften your cries
Soften your cries
Comely in my eyes, just be my child
And just be my child
And just be my child
And just be my child
Maybe You've been here this whole time patient
Maybe this black heart is finally painted
