Letra de Dear God

[Verse 1]
Dear God
Why is there so much pain
And hunger and diseases
Why are people praying in vain
[Verse 2]
And killing in your name
They justify their kill
And how can you just sit and watch
The rich impose their will
[Verse 3]
On people who are poor
And sleeping on the floor
Why do we have to lose
The ones we love in times of war
[Verse 3]
Why do we have to burn
Our fingers just to learn
Why do we have to suffer
Getting nothing in return
[Chorus]
Dear God
Why don't you stop the violence?
We hope, we pray, but all we get is silence
Dear God
Our prayers remain unanswered
As a hundred thousand children die of cancer
Dear God
[Verse 4]
Dear God
I think I'm going insane
The guilty crush the innocent
It's such a bloody shame
[Verse 5]
It'll always be the same
And that will never change
Now how can you just sit
And watch them crucify the saints
[Verse 6]
You want us to be loyal
You want us to be true
But I cannot remember
Getting any help from you
[Verse 7]
If it's true that Jesus
He died for our sins
Then why all these tsunamis
And these hurricane winds
[Chorus]
Dear God
Why don't you stop the violence?
We hope, we pray, but all we get is silence
Dear God
Our prayers remain unanswered
As a hundred thousand children die of cancer
Dear God
[Verse 8]
Dear God
Why is there so much grief
And rape and murder
How can you expect us to believe
[Verse 9]
And get down on our knees
Without any guarantees
The afterlife is promised
Just to make us feel at ease
[Verse 10]
So we won't cross the line
And we will stand our time
Longing for the afterlife
Waiting for a sign
[Verse 11]
A sign that never came
If Jesus took the blame
Then why are desperate people
Carrying a ball and chain
[Chorus]
Dear God
Why don't you stop the violence?
We hope, we pray, but all we get is silence
Dear God
Our prayers remain unanswered
As a hundred thousand children die of cancer
Dear God
