"Why God Why Me" lyrics

Why, God, is the sky falling down on me?
Why not the mean girl in geometry?
Crying on the bedroom floor, fifteen years old
Why, God? Why me?

I talked to you to keep this house from burning
I thought Sunday church and Bible verses
Might stop the darker days, but I still prayed
Why, God? Why me?

Now I'm older and I'm wiser
And I've lived more life than people twice my age
All the did-me-wrongs, yeah, they built me strong
There's a flower finally blooming from that rain
We didn't always agree
But I'm starting to see
Why, God, why me

I'll be the apple that fell miles away from
That family tree, the shoulder for a younger girl
Just like me, when I look back, I realize that's
Why, God, why me

Now I'm older and I'm wiser
And I've lived more life than people twice my age
All the did-me-wrongs, yeah, they built me strong
There's a flower finally blooming from that rain
We didn't always agree
But I'm starting to see
Why, God, why me

They say You have a plan, but I didn't understand
When I was swinging on that schoolyard playground
If it weren't for my shattered past
There's no way that I'd be half
Of the woman you hear singing to you now
Look how she turned out

She's older and she's wiser
And she's lived more life than people twice her age
All the did-her-wrongs, they built her strong
And a flower finally bloomed out of that rain
We didn't always agree
But I'm starting to see
Why, God, why me
Why, God, why me
