Father

This train goes north and south I'm walking
From my mouth a silent hush of words
Your name is playing on repeat
Each step the night grows cold defeat
But you stay locked up, locked up inside my head

The sick are healed by God they say
I'm sick and filthy as I pray
I prayed, and I prayed... but no one came...

Father in Heaven
Why did you leave me?
You know that I'm trying
Why'd you take my love so suddenly?
Why couldn't you save us?
I'm asking I'm pleading
I feel like I'm dying
Are you there, oh, are you listening?

Moments away from building a cradle
She made the choice there's thread in the needle
God knows best, Job was his finest
But I'm not him so why try this
My engine is failing, my fuel's running empty
Family and friends, they don't seem to fill me
This heartbroken man wants what he lost back
Give her back, please send her back

Father in Heaven
Why did she leave me?
You know that I'm trying
Just in 2 months she left flawlessly
Father in Heaven
I'm baffled and helpless
You never deliver
While I'm crying out while on my knees
She's gone
She's gone
She's gone
Father... Why is she gone?

Father in Heaven
How could you leave me?
Your love for your children
Was extended out to all but me
If it's too much to ask then
Please don't come and find me
Don't come and find me
She was all that I wanted
