Lyrics:
I spoke to God even though he don’t care how I feel
I sent him letters, yet I found them returned and sealed
All of my prayers left unanswered, yet still I would kneel
I spoke to God even though I don’t know if he’s real
I heard that evil is silent (Evil is silent)
I know my demons stay quiet (My demons stay quiet)
Until I ask for compliance
That’s when they claw and they riot
So keep me awake
Even though I wish to escape
From these thoughts I, ponder and pray (Ponder and pray)
Even though I’ve lost all my faith, I will survive
I watched below as I saw my son fall in a field
I let his heart fall apart then I taught it to heal
I let him ask me for guidance
I met his questions with silence
Hiding the answers inside, I always knew he would find it
So keep me awake
Even though I wish to escape
From these thoughts I, ponder and pray (Ponder and pray)
Even though I’ve lost all my faith, I will survive
He placed the earth in the palm of my hands
Asked me to fix all the problems it has
Now I think I finally understand
So keep me awake, keep me awake
Keep me awake
Even though I’ve lost all my faith (Lost all my faith)
Keep me awake
Even though I wish to escape
From these thoughts I, ponder and pray
Even though I’ve lost all my faith, I will survive
