God, why? Lyrics

God, tell me what you're trying to prove

What else can I lose?

Can't you just give me a clue?

And tell me how you choose

Who gets to stay, who has to go

I'll find my way, then I don't know

If everything they say is true

Then why do you take the ones you do?

I'll try to pray, I'll try to grow

I'll find my way, then I don't know

They say it's fate, I say too soon

God, why do you take the ones you do?

I'll say that I got better

Still feel her on my sweater

Still hear him in the weather

Oh, tell me why'd they have to go

I'll say that I got stronger

Mornings turn to mourner

Still the nights are getting longer

Oh, tell me, God, I have to know

Who gets to stay, who has to go

I'll find my way, then I don't know

If everything they say is true

Then why do you take the ones you do?

I'll try to pray, I'll try to grow

I'll find my way, then I don't know

They say it's fate, I say too soon

God, why do you take the ones you do?
