My life has been so cruel and extremely unkind
Father if you’re in heaven won’t show me a sign
I’ve put my entire life into your trusting hands
And as you should know, my faith is all that I am

I try to be faithful to my convictions the best that I can
What more do you want out of this faithful man
I know sometimes my sins can be my leprosy
I ask you my father, is that why I get your apathy

I’m finding it harder to put my breath into prayer
Why should I waste my words on ears that aren’t there
The only voice I heard is the echo of my own
Slowly convincing me I am truly alone

In confession I expressed my feelings to the priest
He tried to comfort me, but my doubt only increased
I bared my soul and found disappointing answers
If God existed why would he let this occur

I’m starting to understand the logic of the atheist
The belief that you, my God, you don’t exist
I once believed their thinking blasphemy
Forgive me God, I can’t believe in you if you don’t believe in me
