Shattered Faith

Bad Religion

The scientist purported that there ain't no purpose 
and the theologian told me that it's all been designed 
and I'm trying to maintain objectivity 
The world won't illuminate what really matters 
and I'm an imperfect modal/moral meaning extractor 
processing the complexity 
Born of the Earth (Are we blind?) 
We weren't given a choice (There's no way) 
What about free will? (What we have) 
Do we have a voice? (Is shattered faith) 
See them run in place (Here and now) 
in the human rat race (No reward) 
So much dead weight (No debate) to our disgrace (Accept your fate) 
Life begins when you accept your fate 
Paralysis from forces raging out of control until 
my confidence and will are at an all-time low 
Just directionless wandering 
Eternal life, eternal truth, eternal secrets 
Isolated hopes and hypotheses just 
Leave me feeling so hungry 
Born of the Earth (Are we blind?) 
We weren't given a choice (There's no way) 
What about free will? (What we have) 
Do we have a voice? (Is shattered faith) 
See them run in place (Here and now) 
in the human rat race (No reward) 
So much dead weight (No debate) to our disgrace (Accept your fate) 
Life begins when you accept your fate 
Right or wrong, 
the main criterion is what you do and not what you say 
The roads you take, the friends you make and those you throw away 
The method is a simple synthesis of the past and present state 
You never lose if the path you choose is one you can easily navigate 
I had a dream, light and carefree 
But now there's doubt and gravity 
But I won't run in place (Are we blind?) in the human rat race (There's no way) 
I can set the pace (What we have) and accept my fate (Is shattered faith) 
Shattered faith (Here and now) 
Shattered faith (No reward) 
the part of me (No debate) I can't erase (Accept your faith)
