You say he's been there
Through everything
He's pulled you through
He's why you're living
But I'll let you know
When you pray to the stars
They can't hear your prayers
Nor heal your scars
There is no god
That will wipe your tears
Or will save you from
Your deepest fears
He can't come down
And feed you guidance
When all you know
Is false reliance
Because what god
Abandons his children
And makes them believe
That some are above him
What god teaches
Love below hate
You're not going to some hell
For being at church late
What god kills off people
For things out of control
Who teaches if some are different
Their head should roll?
We are insignificant
Just specks in the sky
We're a fleck of dirt
In the universe's eye
We could be gone in an instant
Just a comet in orbit
Could destroy us all
Our lives we'd forfeit
So why do we rely
On a deity we created?
We're no better than any other
Our lives are belated
So let go of such burden
And live your life
No god will punish you
Or save you from strife
