VERSE 1: You won't even look at me anymore; I don't know why I'm being ignored. I'm lonely and hurt, and it seems nobody cares in the world. My heart is achin', 'cause my heart is breakin'. I've been left in the dark so many times, so I pray time is on my side. I have a broken heart, the pain lies beyond the scars. I choke back the tears that I've hid for one too many years.
CHORUS: You're giving me the cold shoulder, the pain worsens as I grow older. There are some things I can't take, one thing is losing faith. I wish the past would disappear, but I know God won't ever hear. Can't anyone hear my plea? I'm losing faith in me. As I grow older, I'll keep getting the cold shoulder.
VERSE 2: I'm damaged perfect for all to see, I guess I need to accept me as me. There's too much trauma, and there's so much drama. No one can see my reflection, I have no protection. Won't someone please save my soul? Anger and devastation are taking control. All I need is a hand to hold, or a hug when I get cold. I don't understand why I pray, no one will ever even hear a word I say...anyway.
CHORUS: You're giving me the cold shoulder, the pain worsens as I grow older. There are some things I can't take, one thing is losing faith. I wish the past would disappear, but I know God won't ever hear. Can't anyone hear my plea? I'm losing faith in me. As I grow older, I'll keep getting the cold shoulder.
VERSE 3: Hatred and pain run deep, sorrow and fear all flow through me. I say enough is enough, now I declare I'm giving up. Goodbye and goodnight.
CHORUS: Just stop giving me the cold shoulder, and the pain will go away as I grow older. There are so many things I can't ever take, the number one this is losing faith. The past might slowly disappear; all I need is for God to hear. He can hear my plea; I just need some faith in me. As I grow older, dad just stop giving me the cold shoulder. Whoa, dad just help me grow older, by not giving me the cold shoulder.
