Alone I grieve in empty silence.
While those who I loved have turned their backs on me.
This moment of truth has opened up my eyes and now it can't be unseen.
I saw no volunteers.
Lining up to soak up my salty tears.
You didn't have to treat me the way you did all these years.
Oh whoa is my grief.
You sing about faith and grace.
Yet you slammed the door in my face.
You turned your back.
When I was so lost and out of place.
Take my hand.
For alone I grieve.
Hold me now.
Shelter me.
Alone I grieve.
