Hey, God!
Where were you when I cried myself to sleep?
When I was heartbroken?
I called to you,
I prayed to you,
I needed you,
And you ignored me...
Hey, God!
Where were you when her father beat her?
When he made her his human ashtray?
She cried for help,
She begged him to stop,
She needed you,
And you let her suffer...
Hey, God!
Where were you when those kids tortured him?
When he hanged himself?
He hated himself,
He screamed your name,
He needed you,
And you let him tie the knot...
Hey, God!
You tell us you're here,
You tell us you're there.
You tell us you love us,
You tell us you care.
Hey, God!
Tell me,
If this is true,
Then where have you been?
Taking a break while your kids die within.
Hey, God!
They think you're poetic,
I think you're pathetic, synthetic,
An idea designed as a hopeful aesthetic.
You let your people believe
And when they need you,
You pack up and leave.
Hey, God...
