• Dear God,
    I know it's been awhile, since I've written to you
    But what to write, I had not a clue
    There was this girl, a friend of mine
    with beautiful eyes and a smile divine
    I loved her eyes, I loved her laugh
    She truly was, my other half
    Maybe it was wrong, how hard I fell
    but when I was with her, my heart would swell
    Together we'd spend, hours at night
    Kissing and cuddling, until it got light
    Maybe I sinned, maybe I was wrong
    but my feelings for her, were too damn strong
    I asked her to marry me, and she said yes
    What happened next, you can only guess

    Time went by, the years slipped away
    But no matter what, I'll remember the day
    The day she came to me and sat me down
    and told me just what, the doctor had found
    Inside her womb, now grew our child
    and for a moment, I went wild
    This was great news, for someone like me,
    It was hard to believe, I was a father-to-be

    I know you don't understand, why I did not write
    When the life you gave me, was happy and bright
    You knew I was thankful, and happy for it all
    At least until, I got the call
    The one from the hospital, where my son was born
    The call that left me, feeling torn

    Why did you do? Why'd you take him away?
    Why couldn't you just let him stay?
    You called him to the heavens above
    Where he would be yours, to hold and love
    But why God why, did she go too?
    Was one death not enough for me to go through?
    I don't understand it, it doesn't make sense
    The sorrow in my heart, became immense
    I did everything right, were you mad at me?
    Was happy not what I was meant to be?
    Did I fail as a husband? Where did I go wrong?
    I always made sure, my prayers were long
    I prayed and prayed and prayed some more
    I had a cross on every door

    I guess it wasn't enough for you
    and now all this pain, I must go through
    The least I could say, is that I tried
    to try and remain, on your good side
    I wanted to keep you happy, but it couldn't be done
    You took away my wife, after my son

    So here's the letter, I promised to write
    When I held my wife, close at night
    Before my son had been taken away
    When I had, only good things to say

    Here's the letter, I promised to write
    When my future appeared, happy and bright
    But things have changed, and so have I
    I spent my time, trying to get by
    But it's just not in me, to let things go
    Losing my wife, was a fatal blow
    I find myself wishing, it had been me you had taken
    wishing you realized, you were mistaken
    I wanted you to come, to take me away
    And with my wife and son I'd stay
    but that is impossible, and now I know why
    Everything I learned about you, was all a lie
    There is no God, you don't exist
    No matter how much, others insist

    The God they claim to know
    Would never sink so low
    to take away a man's wife and son
    and so in my hand, now lies a gun
    But it's not for you, it's for me
    My eyes are open, I finally see
    I found a way, to be with my wife
    By taking away, my very own life
    Together we'll be, in the land of the lost
    where we'll be happy, no matter the cost

    Amen
