[Verse 1]
Hands up
Eyes red
Every prayer feels
Unsent
Whole block
Carved up
Another name on the wall
Chalk dust
Mama said “hold on
He’s there”
But the sky stays blank
Just air
They bleed
Knees on the concrete
Screaming at the clouds
Till their jaws weak
[Pre-Chorus]
If you’re there, why the silence?
Why the saints die in sirens?
Every “amen” sounds violent
When the night never breaks
[Chorus]
God, why you silent in the warzone?
They calling but the echoes feel like dial tones
Fighting in the dark, hearts turning stone
Why you feel so far, why you feel so far? (yeah)
Devils in the corner picking one by one
Angels in the stories, never on the run
If you see it all, how you watch us come undone?
Why you feel so far, why you feel so far from us?
[Verse 2]
Pews packed
But the fridge empty
Preacher got gold
Kids skinny
They pass plates
We pass pain
Another candle lit
Same rain
Scroll feed
More names, more headlines
Black suits
White lies in deadlines
They say “trust, it’s a test, stay patient”
But who grades all this
Devastation? (huh)
[Pre-Chorus]
If you’re there, why the silence?
Why the saints die in sirens?
Every “amen” sounds violent
When the night never breaks
[Chorus]
God, why you silent in the warzone?
They calling but the echoes feel like dial tones
Fighting in the dark, hearts turning stone
Why you feel so far, why you feel so far? (so far)
Devils in the corner picking one by one
Angels in the stories, never on the run
If you see it all, how you watch us come undone?
Why you feel so far, why you feel so far from us?
[Bridge]
Maybe you’re in the hands
Of the ones who stay
The ones who lift the body
Out the alleyway
If you gave us power
What you waiting for?
If you gave us fire
We can end this war (hey!)
[Chorus]
God, why you silent in the warzone?
They calling but the echoes feel like dial tones
If we are the light, we won’t die alone
We can be the spark, we can be the spark (yeah)
Devils in the corner picking one by one
We gon’ stand back‑to‑back till they come
If you see it all, help us rise as one
If you feel so far, we gon’ bring you where we from
