God Is Just the Universe

I forgive my father for I know now no one knows what they are doing
God is just the universe patiently reworking what we ruin
Human nature bends its ear and turns its back against the fear that turns to
under-ride our questions
Circling in the suspension
Are we born just to die?
And left the whole time wondering why the world is full of suffering
What makes it all worthwhile?
Are we given just to take?
Has it been a big mistake?
Cause if someone made up all of this, I’d wanna ask them, «Why?»
I forgive my mother for I know now every vanity’s a promise
Spirit is the lifelong dirty work of learning to be honest
The infant whines and takes the nip and to the wheel of death she slips
No wonder then we always start off crying
All together too tired of trying
Are we born just to die?
And left the whole time wondering why the world is full of suffering
What makes it all worthwhile?
Are we given just to take?
Has it been a big mistake?
Cause if someone made up all of this, I’d wanna ask them, «Why? Why? Why?»
Would you call us out to walk upon the waters
You fill the sea with monsters and waves
Praise God who listens
Praise God who saves
Praise God who listens
Praise God who saves
I forgive myself for I know now that desires burns down slowly
And time’s a cosmic river that we measure to make sense of where we’re going
All of our collected egos grit their teeth beg for freedom suddenly in the form
of our discomfort
Until we learn the point is loving one another
We’ll be born just to die and spend our small lives wondering
Why we cause each other suffering
What makes it all worthwhile?
Are we given just to take?
Has it been a big mistake?
Cause if someone made up all of this, I’d wanna ask them, «Why? Why? Why?»
