[Verse]
I sit here in the quiet night
Lost in the glow of fading light
The things I loved
They slip away
And I’m left asking why today
[Verse 2]
The stars don't shine like they used to
The world feels cold and oh so blue
I build my dreams
They fall apart
A heavy weight upon my heart
[Chorus]
Why does God keep taking away
Everything that makes me stay
I cry to the heavens but hear no sound
Searching for answers that can't be found
[Verse 3]
I’ve walked this road with faith in hand
Believing there’s a bigger plan
But every joy gets torn from me
And I’m left drowning in this sea
[Bridge]
Is it a lesson I can't see
A test of strength meant just for me
I reach for light but touch the dark
The fire fades but leaves a spark
[Chorus]
Why does God keep taking away
Everything that makes me stay
I cry to the heavens but hear no sound
Searching for answers that can't be found
