Lyrics

There's an emptiness now
There's a silence all around
Is there peace
It can't be found
Since you've gone

Is there purpose
While we're here
Are you safe?
Tell me you are somewhere
I offer silent prayer
Since you've gone

I wonder where you are
Can you see our wounded hearts
Help me find hope
Please help me start

Your pictures on my wall
Your memory in the hall
Your laughter, your voice
Why can't you call
Since you've gone

I believe, I have faith
There is courage in our strength
Still I wonder what lies beyond
And still we're broken since you've gone
