Verse 1
Why’s it so hard to climb out of this funk I’ve known so long?
Every step I take feels like I’m walking where I don’t belong.
My mind’s a maze with no way out,
Every turn just fills me up with doubt.
These foggy thoughts keep stealing every sunrise from my eyes,
Leaving me to fight a thousand storms no one can recognize.
I’m searching for a road that leads me back to who I used to be,
But every mirror shows a stranger staring back at me.
Pre-Chorus
I’m reaching through the silence,
Trying just to hear Your voice.
When every breath feels heavy,
Help me make the harder choice.
Chorus
God, tell me why,
Why I face these battles every day.
God, tell me why,
I feel so broken underneath the weight.
So I’ll fall through the sky,
See the stars, touch the moon, chase the light.
Moments before I wave goodbye,
Just to leave the darkness behind.
God, tell me why…
Tell me why.
Verse 2
The clouds keep hanging over every dream I try to hold.
Hope feels like a fire that’s forgotten how to glow.
I’m tired of these circles that keep pulling me below,
Running from the shadows that somehow always know.
But somewhere through the darkness, there’s a whisper calling me,
A quiet reminder that You’re not done with me.
Even when I lose my way and can’t see through the night,
You’re the spark that keeps on burning, You’re the reason I still fight.
Pre-Chorus
I’m reaching through the silence,
Trying just to hear Your voice.
Even when I stumble,
You still leave the door unlocked.
Chorus
God, tell me why,
Why I face these battles every day.
God, tell me why,
I feel so broken underneath the weight.
So I’ll fall through the sky,
See the stars, touch the moon, chase the light.
Moments before I wave goodbye,
Just to leave the darkness behind.
God, tell me why…
Tell me why.
Bridge
If You’re shaping something stronger,
Don’t let me give up now.
Be the light inside the fog,
The steady hand that pulls me out.
When my heart forgets tomorrow,
When my soul is worn and weak,
Remind me grace is greater
Than the lies surrounding me.
Final Chorus
God, tell me why,
Why I face these battles every day.
God, tell me why,
You still love me through my pain.
I’ll rise through the sky,
Past the stars, beneath Your endless light.
No more waving life goodbye,
‘Cause You’re leading me through the night.
God, tell me why…
Then remind me why
You never left my side.
Outro (Soft)
When the fog begins to fade,
I can finally see Your face.
One more step… one more breath…
One more reason to have faith.
God, You heard my cry,
Even when I couldn’t see.
You were there the whole time,
Carrying me.
