Silence

Life can feel hopeless and empty, depressing and lonely. It sometimes feels as if God doesn't exist or if he does exist, that he doesn't care.
I think it's sad that most christian musicians aren't allowed to express such despair. If they start to write something so honest, the christian label will ban it because its not christian enough. Whatever!

Anyway, somehow this song of hopelessness and honesty managed to slip through

SILENCE by Jars of Clay

Take, take till there's nothing, nothing to turn to.
Nothing when you get through.
Won't you break, scatter pieces of all I've been.
Bowing to all I've been running to.

Where are you?
Where are you?

Did you leave me unbreakable?
Leave me frozen?
I've never felt so cold.
I thought you were silent.
And I thought you left me for the wreckage and the waste.
On an empty beach of faith.
Was it true?

Cause I, I got a question, I got a question- Where are you?

Scream, deeper I wanna scream.
I want you to hear me, I want you to find me.
Cause I, I want to believe but all I pray is wrong and all I claim is gone.

And I, I got a question, I got a question- Where are you?
