The Day I Stopped Praying

[Verse]
I held her hand in a quiet room
The air was heavy
The clock wouldn't move
Her breath was a whisper
Fading too soon
[Chorus]
The day I stopped praying was the day she left
No answers came
Just an empty chest
Everything is different
Nothing feels right
Her voice is the echo that haunts my nights
[Verse 2]
The world outside keeps spinning loud
But I walk through shadows
Lost in the crowd
Her laughter's a memory I can't touch now
[Prechorus]
What do I do with these shattered prayers
When heaven feels like it isn’t there
[Chorus]
The day I stopped praying was the day she died
No stars fell down
No tears from the sky
Everything is broken
Nothing seems fair
Her absence is a silence I cannot bear
[Bridge]
I built my faith on her gentle smile
A temple of love
A sacred mile
But now the walls crumble
The altar's bare
I scream to the heavens
But no one’s there
