Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lost my job on a Monday
Found a note on the door
"Things just happen
" that's what they say
But I’m asking
"Are You keeping score?"
Car crash right at the corner
Stopped short
Somehow I’m fine
Is that fate
Some holy order
Or dumb luck crossing the line?
[Chorus]
Is it God?
Is it the devil?
Or is it just the world spinning out on its own?
Are we pawns
On somebody’s level
Or standing here lonely and totally grown?
I keep looking for a pattern in the pain and the blessing
But I don’t know a thing
Who’s pulling the strings?
[Verse 2]
Mom got sick in the winter
Then healed right out of the blue
Doctor called it a “miracle”
I just stared at my shoes
Some nights I feel protected
Some nights I feel played
Like every answered prayer I get
Costs someone else their day
[Chorus]
Is it God?
Is it the devil?
Or is it just the world doing what it will do?
Are we caught
Inside a riddle
Or making up meaning to carry us through?
I keep looking for a pattern in the loss and the blessing
But I don’t know a thing
Who’s pulling the strings?
[Bridge]
If I flip this coin and it lands on edge
Is that a message or just my head?
If I blame the sky every time I fall
Do I ever learn anything at all?
[Chorus]
Is it God?
Is it the devil?
Or is it just the world trying to turn
Like me?
If You’re there
Or if You’re never
Would You still hear a heart saying
"Help me please?"
I keep living in the tension of the curse and the blessing
Holding on by a thread that I can’t see
[Outro]
So I breathe
And I sing
Maybe faith is the question
Not the answer I bring
Who’s pulling the strings?
