    God's a big boy, I'm sure he can handle being doubted and folks losing faith in him/her/it.

    I have to assume God wants us to question everything, especially if it comes from man.

    Within you Without You

    We were talking
    About the space between us all
    And the people
    Who hide themselves behind a wall
    Of illusion
    Never glimpse the truth
    Then it's far too late
    When they pass away

    We were talking
    About the love we all could share
    When we find it
    To try our best to hold it there
    With our love, with our love
    We could save the world, if they only knew

    Try to realize it's all within yourself
    No one else can make you change
    And to see you're really only very small
    And life flows on within you and without you

    We were talking
    About the love that's gone so cold
    And the people
    Who gain the world and lose their soul
    They don't know
    They can't see
    Are you one of them

    When you've seen beyond yourself
    Then you may find, peace of mind is waiting there
    And the time will come when you see we're all one
    And life flows on within you and without you

    The Moody Blues (written by Justin Hayward)

    Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door
    With a thousand million questions
    About hate and death and war?
    'Cos when we stop and look around us,
    There is nothing that we need,
    In a world of persecution
    That is burning in its greed.

    Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door
    Because the truth is hard to swallow
    That's what the war of love is for

    It's not the way that you say it
    When you do those things to me
    It's more the way that you mean it
    When you tell me what will be

    And when you stop and think about it
    You won't believe it's true
    That all the love you've been giving
    Has all been meant for you.

    I'm looking for someone to change my life,
    I'm looking for a miracle in my life
    And if you could see what it's done to me,
    To lose the love I knew
    Could safely lead me through.

    Between the silence of the mountains,
    And the crashing of the sea,
    There lies a land I once lived in,
    And she's waiting there for me,
    But in the grey of the morning,
    My mind becomes confused,
    Between the dead and the sleeping,
    And the road that I must choose.

    I'm looking for someone to change my life,
    I'm looking for a miracle in my life
    And if you could see what it's done to me,
    To lose the love I knew,
    Could safely lead me to
    The land that I once knew,
    To learn as we grow old
    The secrets of our soul.

    It's not the way that you say it
    When you do those things to me
    It's more the way you really mean it
    When you tell me what will be

    Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door
    With a thousand million questions
    About hate and death and war?
    'Cos when we stop and look around us,
    There is nothing that we need,
    In a world of persecution
    That is burning in its greed.

    System of a Down

    Chop Suey! lyrics Songwriters: Tankian, Serj; Malakian, Daron; Odadjian, Shavarsh; Dolmayan, John;

    Wake up
    Grab a brush and put a little, makeup
    Hide the scars to fade away the, shakeup
    (Hide the scars to fade away the)
    Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
    Here you go create another fable

    You wanted to
    Grab a brush and put a little makeup
    You wanted to
    Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
    You wanted to
    Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
    You wanted to

    I don't think you trust
    In my self righteous suicide
    I cry when angels deserve to die

    Wake up
    Grab a brush and put a little, makeup
    Hide the scars to fade away the, shakeup
    (Hide the scars to fade away the)
    Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
    Here you go create another fable

    You wanted to
    Grab a brush and put a little makeup
    You wanted to
    Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
    You wanted to
    Why'd you leave the keys upon the table
    You wanted to

    I don't think you trust
    In my self righteous suicide
    I cry when angels deserve to die
    In my self righteous suicide
    I cry when angels deserve to die

    Father, father, father, father
    Father into your hands, I commend my spirit
    Father into your hands
    Why have you forsaken me?

    In your eyes forsaken me
    In your thoughts forsaken me
    In your heart forsaken me, oh

    Trust in my self righteous suicide
    I cry when angels deserve to die
    In my self righteous suicide
    I cry when angels deserve to die
