Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I was a kid once Hands pressed tight till my nails turned white Begged You for a word Got the ceiling Got the dark Not a single sign Kept a folded list Of the names I thought You’d guard this time But the ink ran out Guess the angels had a long Long night [Chorus] These are my broken prayers Spilled on the floor Nobody there If You’re on the other side Why do You hide when my mother cries? I’m yelling at an empty sky If I’m wrong Then prove You’re right Take this doubt This rage This fear Or just admit You’re never here [Verse 2] They said “trust the plan” While we buried what was left of him I mouthed their old songs Felt my throat catch fire every hymn If You’re love Then why Do Your miracles skip my street? I’m done being polite Come down here and answer me [Chorus] These are my broken prayers Spilled on the floor Nobody there If You’re on the other side Why do You hide when my brother dies? I’m punching at an empty sky If I’m blind Then open my eyes Take this doubt This rage This fear Or just admit You’re never here [Bridge] Are You deaf Are You gone Were You ever? Did I carve Your name in the air for nothing? (nothing) If You’re real If You feel Then say something Say something (say something, say something) [Chorus] These are my broken prayers Screamed till my lungs rip I don’t care (I don’t care) If You’re on the other side Show me a scar Not a chalkboard line I’m bleeding under starving sky If You’re God Then hear me tonight Take this doubt This rage This fear Or let me go Just disappear [Bridge – scream] ARE YOU THERE OR AM I TALKING TO MYSELF? (TALKING TO MYSELF) DID YOU MAKE ME JUST TO WATCH ME WALK THROUGH HELL? (WALK THROUGH HELL) IF YOU WANT ME YOU CAN MEET ME IN THE FLAMES ‘CAUSE I AM DONE SAYING PRETTY PRAYERS IN YOUR NAME

rock, Hard emo rock ballad with male vocals, starting fragile with clean arpeggiated guitars and roomy drums, then exploding into towering distorted chords and double-time fills. Verses stay intimate with close-mic cleans and distant gang responses; chorus hits with stacked harmonies and octave leads riding the vocal. Screams slice through the second half over half-time crashes and bass drops, ending on a suspended chord and a fading feedback drone., emo, raw, wrestling, soaring
