Intro
Verse 1
I Spent My Whole Life With My Hands Up In The Air
Singing To A God That I´ve Since Learned Was Never There.
We Swore That If I Meant It, If I Gave It Everything
That I Would Feel It In The Room And Hear Him Answer Me.
So I Bled Out On The Chapel Floor And Gave Him All I Had.
And Every Single Time I Prayed I Got No Answer Back.
Chorus
I Sang With My Arms Wide Open
To A Ceiling And A Wall.
I Poured Out Every Part Of Me And Heard No Voice At All.
They Told Me He Was Listening, That He Was Always Near.
But Now I Know That I Wasted Every Moment I Lived My Life In Fear.
I Begged Him For A Whisper, For A Sign That He Was Real.
Now I Hate The Emptiness And Everything I Feel.
Hands Held High To Nobody, I Finally See It Clear
There Was Never Any God Up There Just People Cashing In On Fear.

Verse 2
They Told Me That The Silence Was A Test I Had To Pass.
That Doubt Was Just A Devil And I Hated Myself For That.
I Spent Years Believing I Was Broken, That The Fault Was Mine.
When The Truth Was They Were Lying To My Face The Entire Time.
They Saw Me Guilt And Called It Grace.
They Saw My Chains As Love
They Swore The Answers Coming From A Sky
That´s Always Been Above.
Chorus
I Sang With My Arms Wide Open
To A Ceiling And A Wall.
I Poured Out Every Part Of Me And Heard No Voice At All.
They Told Me He Was Listening, That He Was Always Near.
But Now I Know That I Wasted Every Moment I Live My Life In Fear.
I Begged Him For A Whisper, For A Sign That He Was Real.
Now I Hate The Emptiness And Everything I Feel.
Hands Held High To Nobody, I Finally See It Clear
There Was Never Any God Up There Just People Cashing In On Fear.
Outro
Go Ahead And Keep Your Heaven
Keep Your Silence, Keep Your Throne.
I Spent My Whole Life Screaming And You Never Picked Up The Phone.
So Burn It Down, The Whole Damn Church
Every Liar In The Pew.
I Found My Peace
The Second That I Stopped Believing You.
