Where was God?, by If It Wasnt For The Broken Hearts Where Would I Be Subscribe to rss feed for If It Wasnt For The Broken Hearts Where Would I Be

The sun just went and set,
On the whole damn world,
And now we walk towards the darkness,
With our guns in our hands,
Fighting for a war,
None of us even understand,
We shoot, we stab, we kill,
And no one even asks why,
Some people say that its god’s will,
Well I’m damned if that’s what I’ll buy,

Where was god this evening,
When our sun fell out our sky?
Where was god this morning.
As 50,000 children died?

Where was god during the holocaust?
Or when millions of blacks,
Were made to be white’s slaves?
Where is god as innocent people are raped?
Where was he when the titanic sunk?
Or when thousands of women are beaten,
Because their husband is drunk?

Where was god this evening,
As  the sun fell out our sky?
Where was god as the mother who lost her child,
Began to scream and cry?

Where was god  as millions died in Iraq?
As children are shot and killed,
Where was god to watch their backs?
Where was god when the planes hit the twin towers?
As heros were killed trying to save the dead,
He doesn’t do much to help people,
For someone with so much power.

Where was god this evening,
While our sun fell out our sky?
It’s a sin to take his name in vain.
But he’s happy to watch us die.

Where was god this evening,
When the sun fell from our damn sky?
Where is god right now?
I’m so tired of asking why!!
