Lord, please answer yo goddamn phone Static spittin' in my ear, dial tone hummin' like a bee Another night, another prayer, another message just for thee Pickin' up the pieces, Lord, you know I'm barely holdin' on But still I dial your number, hopin' this time you'll be home Lost my little boy last week, barely saw him turn three Cancer took him in its claws, leavin' scars where dreams used to be Been dialing for so long, number's in speed dial I know it's all pointless, guess I'm stuck on denial I begged you to help him, or just take me Steal my breath, my strength, anything, just let him be Heaven's on Hold, just cruel silence and my pain My faith fadin' faster than a candle in a hurricane Empty pews so cold, and a choir so faint In this lonely church of sorrow, where no hope is sustained Maybe God's gone deafened by the cries of all the lost Leaving only echoes in the void, where prayers are tossed I used to tell myself it's random, and try not to blame you But silence cuts deeper than a knife, anger's all I accrue Is this your twisted melody, some symphony of pain Watchin' me crawl on broken glass, while you strum the hurricane Heaven's on Hold, just cruel silence and my pain My faith fadin' faster than a candle in a hurricane Empty pews so cold, and a choir so faint In this lonely church of sorrow, where no hope is sustained Heaven's on Hold, but my rage will break the line This one-way prayer is a fire, gonna make your silence whine My faith may fade, but my fury won't be doused In this lonely church of shadows, I'll scream till hope is roused Heaven's on Hold, just cruel silence and my pain My faith fadin' faster than a candle in a hurricane Pick the f*ck up, I know that you're there You at least could answer, pretend that you care It's me again God, yeah I'm pointin' the finger You're gonna answer me bitch, or I'll continue to linger Why him, Lord, a mere speck in your design Did his laughter offend your ears, his joy a bitter wine Don't leave me in this limbo, adrift in the unknown Give me peace, good Lord, or unleash my fury, my vengeance will be sown I begged, I bargained, put my spirit on the line Just leave my son alone, let his tiny candle shine I offered to trade breaths I hadn't drawn, a future I couldn't see I would do anything Anything, just let him be Heaven's on Hold, just cruel silence and my pain. My faith fadin' faster than a candle in a hurricane Empty pews so cold, and a choir so faint In this lonely church of sorrow, where no hope is sustained I'm the one you should have took, the weathered, weary shell Scarred by life, my soul in tatters, trapped in this living hell My boy bloomed like sunshine, innocence in every ray You had your fuckin' pick, but you chose him anyway The lullaby's gone silent, replaced by thunder's roll This is no longer a prayer, it's a demon taking hold You took something from me, he's out there in the sands of time But my boy's not lost, he's waiting, and vengeance is mine
