My heart is broken and I'm so confused
I cried out to the Lord in tearful prayer
Please answer me, O God! But he refused
It's almost like He doesn't really care
A puppy lost who gives the slightest yelp
is quickly saved and given full reward
but when I need a little bit of help
my desperate cries are totally ignored
And yet if I commit the slightest crime
if outside of His will I slightly stray
I'm damned to burn in hell for all of time
this absentee Father, I must obey
I might as well just pray to a brick wall
At least it won't condemn me when I fall
