she rages pale and sits paper thin
demons from hell chasing from within
light from the dash, the only light she's in
the flying glass shatters on the wall
watching from the hall, the time has passed
forgetting how to feel, realizing she's the one in need

Chorus
why do I have to bleed'
why do I have to scream'
why do I have to be tore down
before I can believe'
why do I have to bleed'
why do I have to scream'
why do I have to be tore down'
before I can receive ...

the morning sun bathes the parking lot
she rubs her eyes, and fumbles through her thoughts
she lifts a cross and mumbles out a prayer
answer me if you're out there

- Chorus -

Bridge
veiled in mystery, seen in reality
speak and comfort me
fuel my hope, answer me
'cause I know that you are there

- Chorus (2x) -
