Felt compelled to write a spiritual tune.
I wanted to keep this very short and simple, and am wondering whether it is too simple. Also tried to make the lyrics general and flexible so the song can be interpreted in more than one way - curious to know whether that works.

You shouted at me but I didn’t hear
Nothing was getting through my pain
I cursed your name for abandoning me
I needed someone to blame
Now I’m awake
And I’m alive
For years I missed the signs you planted in the road
I was blind to everything around me
In my confusion and desperation
You snuck into my heart and I began to see
I’m awake
I’m alive
I sometimes wish that I had found you long ago
All those wasted years seem such a shame
But perhaps I needed to spend some time in hell
Before I could finally know your name
I’m awake
I’m alive
