Lyrics
[Intro]
Silent shadows in my mind, echoes of what I left behind
Whispering my broken truth, in the silence of my youth
[Verse 1]
I saw the darkness in his eyes, a silent plea I couldn't hear
Town of secrets, whispered lies, haunted by my own fear
The bruises hid behind a smile, a cry I chose to ignore
Every silent, stolen mile, I wished I could restore
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I pray for forgiveness, for every tear unshed
For every moment of weakness, for the silence I bred
[Chorus]
Lord, please tell me why I didn’t stand tall
Why I stayed quiet when he heard the call
Now I carry this burden, a heavy weight in my soul
Lord, give me the strength to make myself whole
[Verse 2]
The guilt consumes my every breath, a ghost I can’t evade
Living with my own regret, a price I never paid
His innocent eyes, now memories I can’t forget
Wishing I had the courage, to save him from his threat
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I pray for forgiveness, for every silent cry
For the times I looked away, when I should have tried
[Chorus]
Lord, please tell me why I didn’t stand tall
Why I stayed silent when he heard the call
Now I carry this burden, a heavy weight in my soul
Lord, give me the strength to make myself whole
[Bridge]
Broken hearts and broken vows, I ask for your mercy now
Help me find the courage somehow, to heal and to end this somehow
[Outro]
Lord, I live with this burden each and every day
Hoping for redemption, in your guiding way
Help me forgive myself, and give him peace someday
Lord, please show me how to turn this pain into grace
