If Tears Were Words

If Tears Were Words

[Lyrics]

Spoken: I can’t believe I’ve been ravaged by storm. Who can escape it, and I feel so alone…

[Instrumental]

Pain so real
Eyes crying
Silent screaming
Paralyzing

All is dark
All is grey
Where is color
What is play

Take me away
Let me escape
Dying is better
Than this place

Am I forgotten
World marches on
Alone to suffer
(And) sing this song

If tears were words
I’d have a lot to say
A lot to say
(I’d be) talking nonstop
Talking your ear off
All day

[Instrumental break]

What is a life
What is purpose
Torn to pieces
All is hopeless

Will I heal
Will I recover
Will I see beauty
Will I see color

Where is God
Why is he silent
Why does he allow
All this violence

I don’t understand
this part of the plan
Remember me
Just hold my hand

If tears were words
I’d have a lot to say
A lot to say, hey
(I’d be) talking nonstop
Talking your ear off
All day

Running, running down my face
Sweeping, sweeping off the page

So I lay me down
Quiet my soul
Rest in God
To make me whole

Hold me God
Day after day
Breathe in me
Hope make a way

If tears were words
I’d have a lot to say
A lot to say
(I’d be) talking nonstop
Talking your ear off
All day

[Instrumental Ending]
