Dumb Me Down

"♬ I'll chase these clouds away,
start a brand new story.
I'll make it through each day,
singing death or glory.

Lord won't answer me,
I won't let it get me down. ♬"

The lyrics of Orsai's song
flow through the earphones
and I look at her,

"Do you believe in God?"

She suddenly asks.

I stop.
That churning feeling comes back.
Of course, I want to say,
of course I do.

Everyone believes in something.
God, Saints, maybe even themselves
or no one at all.

But her eyes tell me what she's

expecting my answer to be.

So I smile, "No, not really. You?"

Orsai nods in approval,

"Nah, not my kinda thing."

The feeling knots itself tighter.
