Текст песни If Anyone Is Listening - Stephen Kellogg

I am born and raised New England
It is where I hope to die
Surrounded by a family that I've tried to do right by
I am leaving them these songs and the best of my intentions
And a million complications that we never really mention

If anyone is listening
Could you say a prayer for me?
I am asking for a miracle this time
Cause the truth is I am barely getting by

In confidence I talked to you about all of my rejections
You led me to the wilderness, but you offered no protections
While you made yourself the victim, I pretended I was strong
We played our parts so faithfully and hoped no one would catch on

If anyone is listening
If you hear me whispering
I am asking for a miracle it's true
Cause the truth is I don't know what else to do

I've been looking for a break for so many years
And the day that I stop searching is the day I disappear
If you knew what I was thinking, you wouldn't think that I was nice
Is a secret still a secret if you've kept it all your life?

I still can't believe you left us, that'll never be OK
There is so much information in the things we do not say
My heart broke when I was younger, but it ain't nobodies fault
Love is for the losing if it's worth a damn at all

If anyone is listening
Wish I felt you here with me
I am asking for a miracle right now
And if God is listening
I've been trying to believe
I am asking for a miracle I know
Cause the truth is I've got no where else to go
