Does God turn their back on us

When we step away from them?

Am I shouting to a deaf ear when I kneel to pray?

My words weren't sent to a deity

Did they ever leave these walls?

I can't help but feel like I'm all by myself

I sure as hell don't feel used

Just feel like a waste of time (I'm a waste)

Where do I begin?

Have I even started yet?

Glancing at our futures

Still stuck in the past

Lying to myself

Just to feel reassured

I can't help but feel like a waste of breath

I know I have a purpose

But I haven't found it yet

No one above, empty below

So alone

Drowning underwater, trying to stay afloat

Reaching out for help, grabbing thin air

Can't seem to reach the surface

The end seems so far away (far away)

These trials never ending

These trials never ending

Always haunting me

I can't live this way anymore

I can't help but feel

Like a waste of breath

I know I have a purpose

But I haven't found it yet

No one above, empty below

So alone in this life

I can't help but feel like a waste of breath

I know I have a purpose

But I haven't found it yet

No one above, empty below

So alone

So alone

Lost in the valley

There were shadows of death

In the corner of my eye

I can't escape you yet

I was lost in the valley

There were shadows of death

Hanging from the pulpit

I can't see it

A book of nothing (of nothing)

No one above, empty below

No one above, empty below

So alone
