Cuando Nadie Se Queda
Miguel Angel Oroyo Perez
When Nobody Stays
I woke up today and didn't hear your voice
The silence was stronger than my prayer
The bread gets cold on the table
And my soul, empty, just cries for no reason
My friends left, my faith wavered
The temple feels as cold as I do
The anthems don't sound the same anymore
And my heart, grew tired of waiting
But still with tears
My soul whispers your name
God, if you hear me, don't let me fall
Even though I no longer have the strength to believe
I have failed so many times, I am not worthy of you
But if you still love me, stay here
I saw promises broken on your altars
I saw shepherds weeping and crossing their seas
Sometimes I wonder if you're really here
Or if I, walked away without looking back
Where are you when there are no miracles?
When cancer doesn't heal
When the child doesn't return
Where are you, my God?
God, if you hear me, come and rescue me
This broken heart, tired of fighting
I don't want answers, just your peace
If you're going to talk to me, let it be in my solitude
When nobody stays
You, Lord, can still enter
