An ageless question, universal

They're asking why

Creation destined cries flood the night in pain

They say if You are real then take it away

But man will only look to You lying on his face



Now we lie awake

With shut eyes

So to forever forget this



There cries, this agony, injustices, suffering

Symptoms of a larger disease

Inside of me and you and me

So try to close you eyes and make it fade away

But open and you'll see

This stain is you, this stain is me



Now so many wonder why it is

So much has gone awry in all of this

And being makes you sigh that you exist

But you can't escape this

Seemingly undeserved is your lot

But generations past and you forgot

We chose to eat our fill and fell to not

This pain is here reminding us to turn and leave

To come back home



Pointing to show us the way
