Why does it come to this?

Why does my heart seem to burn?

Why will I never feel the same?

Why, please just tell me why.

Why I have to say goodbye.

I wanted it forever to be

But I know now I will never see

Your smiling face, looking back at me

Please, explain to me why

Why I have to say goodbye.

Memories will forever remain

But lives will only last a day

So if I had one wish

I would want you, here, beside me

Tell me why I have to say goodbye

I never thought this day would come

When I wrote you a letter

And went to send it in the mail

Then I realized

There's no address

To heaven

Don't make me say goodbye

As tears fall down my face

I looked up and asked why

Who will fill the empty space you left behind

I don't understand why

Why I have to say goodbye

So wait for me, at those heavenly gates

Wait for me, with open arms

It's time for me to say goodbye

But wait for me.

Wait for me.

Trying

It's the hardest thing I've ever done

A struggle greater than I knew

Tears, laughter, sorrow and joy

Confusion surrounds me

I'm trying to so hard

Trying to keep one focus

Trying to only see Christ

I'm trying - trying so hard

It's like my heart is in a box

A war to always keep it safe

Pain, healing, sadness and delight

Desire surrounds me

I'm trying to so hard

Trying to live just one way

Trying to fully serve Christ

I'm trying - trying so hard

It's a constant battle

A constant tugging at my heart

Desire, needs, shame and pride

Many storms surround me

But I'm trying so hard

Trying to just remember

Trying to always seek Christ

I'm trying - trying so hard

Oh Lord, give me strength

To always

Always keep trying

Until the end of my days
