If you've ever question beliefs that you hold you're not alone
But you oughtta realize that every religion is a metaphor
In the case of Christianity and Judaism there exists the belief
That spiritual matters are enslaved to history
The Buddhists believe that the functional aspects override the myth
While other religions use the literal core to build foundations with
See half the world sees the myth as fact
And it's seen as a lie by the other half and
The simple truth is that it's none of that cause
Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
Somehow we get by without ever learning
Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
Somehow we get by without ever learning
Science and religion are not mutually exclusive
In fact for better understanding
We take the facts of science and apply them
And if both factors keep evolving
Then we continue getting information
But closing off possibilities
Makes it hard to see the bigger picture
Consider the case of the woman whose faith helped her make it through
When she was raped and cut up, left for dead in a trunk, her beliefs held true
It doesn't matter if it's real or not
Cause some things are better left without a doubt and
And if it works and it gets the job done
Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
Somehow we get by without ever learning
Somehow no matter what the world keeps turning
Somehow we get by without ever learning
