Your not here

Verse 1

I scream your name 
across the empty hall
Your jacket’s still draped 
on the stairwell wall
They said there’s a plan, 
They say it’s divine
But I held your hand 
when you ran out of time

Pre-Chorus

I folded my hands 
like how I was taught
But they won’t stay still,
Im breaking apart 
If this is mercy
If this is grace why did you go away 

Chorus

I don’t have a reason 
to be angry at God
But I dont agree... 
That you’re in a frame 
on the mantle, and i am still 
I don’t curse heaven, and I don’t 
curse my fate
But I hate the silence 
that you left in this place
If love is the answer 
That they’re preaching to me
Then tell me why,
you’re not here with me..
(Then tell me why)
you’re not here with me

Verse 2

Your coffee mug
Is still by the sink
Your laugh is echoes 
through everything
They say you’re safe, 
that you’re finally home
But I’m standing here 
in this quiet alone

Pre-Chorus

If this is mercy, if this is grace
Why does it feel like a bruise I can’t erase
If this is mercy, oh if this is grace
Why did you leave me here in this place

Chorus

I don’t have a reason 
to be angry at God
But I dont agree... 
That you’re in a frame 
on the mantle, and i am still 
I don’t curse heaven, and I don’t 
curse my fate
But I hate the silence 
that you left in this place
If love is the answer 
That they’re preaching to me
Then tell me why,
you’re not here with me..
(Then tell me why)
you’re not here with me


Bridge

Don’t tell me heaven needed another choir
You had eternity before, I only had a lifetime
I fold my hands, I say the prayers
But every word feels like a crime

Final Chorus 

I don’t have a reason 
to be angry at God
But I dont agree... 
That you’re in a frame 
on the mantle, and i am still 
I don’t curse heaven, and I don’t 
curse my fate
But I hate the silence 
that you left in this place
If love is the answer 
That they’re preaching to me
Then tell me why,
you’re not here with me..
(Then tell me why)
you’re not here with me

Outro 

If love is the answer 
they’re preaching to me
(tell me why)
you’re not here with me
