There Is No God Lyrics

I've got a friend whose parents would like to beat him

They used to make them go so hungry all the time

And ever since he's been clinging onto Jesus

'Cause that's what will save him, in his mind

But as for me, I've not seen or felt the proof

That there's any kind of savior in this day and time

But we were raised for centuries in bubbles

Now the bubbles are bursting on down the line

I was a kid in those churches, hairspray in the '80s

Watching ceiling-scrapers make their nails bleed

I really thought that Ozzy was the Devil

Looking to kill babies while high on evil weed

I really thought that I would burn forever

'Cause I was loving people and just being me

I really thought that I was going to die

Sick and void of love 'cause God was punishing me

But there is no God

There is no savior except yourself

And I am not wrong

And neither is anybody else

It's all in your mind

And that is your reality but this is mine

I take a look at all the different people

Killing for a God that they have never seen

It is like a sacrifice to Satan

What is done to nations out of blinding greed

The prince of peace is failing at his duty

We left it in God's hands, but he's leaving it be

Yes it is all according to his plan

It's best not to question our reality

I do not care what you all believe in

It's fine that you love Jesus, if that's your thing

But this guitar has proved to be my savior

It took a lifetime's work to find my sanity

'Cause power is a drug for some believers

They love to hold the feelings of the people around

But I don't think my soul will be forsaken

Just 'cause I'm not facing east when I'm placed in the ground
