IV
Been carrying these memories
Like a grenade in my chest
Every scar a reminder
Of the man I can't forget
The devil's there whisperin'
Twistin' the truth in my ear
"Your God ain't listenin'
In fact, he ain't even here"
I keep tryna outrun that voice
But it follows everywhere I roam
So tonight I'm on my knees again
Prayin' to God I ain't really alone
Lord, I've been walkin' through hell
Tryin' hard not to lose my soul
Everything I thought would set me free
Just dug an even deeper hole
If forgiveness still exists
Then, Lord, please send me a sign
But for now I'll keep prayin'
Maybe you'll hear me this time
Yeah, maybe you'll hear me this time
I've lived a life
That no one should
Survived tortures
I didn't think I could
Left with more hurt
Than you could ever know
All this hate inside
Ain't got nowhere to go
I tried drownin' the demons
I didn't wanna face
But when one dies
Another takes its place
If forgiveness still exists
Then, Lord, please send me a sign
But for now I'll keep prayin'
Maybe you'll hear me this time
Yeah, maybe you'll hear me this time
I don't wanna think it
But maybe the devil's right
Maybe I'm too far gone
Maybe every prayer I've said
Just echoes I'm alone
If there's a spark of grace left
Somewhere past my wrong
Then, Lord, please find me
'Fore that last bit of faith is gone
If forgiveness still exists
Then, Lord, please send me a sign
But for now I'll keep prayin'
Maybe you'll hear me this time
Maybe you'll hear me this time
