Don't talk to me about religion
I just don't want to know
All of the species and their origin
Who goes upstairs and who below
In a pantheistic universe
I don't know which God is true
Which one is better, which one worse ?
Who's God is better than whose ?
It doesn't really matter which is real
We are all responsible for ourselves
For what we think, for what we feel
We can't blame it on anyone else
I think that the only need for religion
Is to back up those who are weak
Who don't allow themselves an opinion
Rely on an authority for how they dare speak
All the wars over all of the years
From the Crusades, right up until now
All of the deaths and all of the tears
Surely could have been avoided somehow
