*Here's to the ones who loved and just forgot Broken promises, easy endings, no tying the knot Perhaps they lost before and that was their shot Around and around they go, the ever loveless lot Here's to the ones who never thought a thing About heavens that soar and angels that sing Gates up in the clouds and a heavenly king Smothering the ungodly flames that hell bring Here's to the ones who are above the rule of order Steering clear and clever from the symptoms of cancer Minding, winding their stories into their own favor Rather than to the social systems they know better Here's to the ones who are devoid of anything good Whatever path they lead—will always be misunderstood The eternal monsters and demons of their neighborhood Not even the exorcists will save them even if they could Here's to the ones who look at life with a skeptical screen Something bad must have happened in between Distorting their eyes once so pure like crystalline Soiling them with a reality unmendable and obscene Here's to every nonbeliever in this world both beautiful and sorry Believing in their own terms glorious and free, though rather* painfully

Here's To the Nonbelievers
*Here's to the ones who loved and just forgot Broken promises, easy endings, no tying the knot Perhaps they lost before and that was their shot Around and around they go, the ever loveless lot Here's to the ones who never thought a thing About heavens that soar and angels that sing Gates up in the clouds and a heavenly king Smothering the ungodly flames that hell bring Here's to the ones who are above the rule of order Steering clear and clever from the symptoms of cancer Minding, winding their stories into their own favor Rather than to the social systems they know better Here's to the ones who are devoid of anything good Whatever path they lead—will always be misunderstood The eternal monsters and demons of their neighborhood Not even the exorcists will save them even if they could Here's to the ones who look at life with a skeptical screen Something bad must have happened in between Distorting their eyes once so pure like crystalline Soiling them with a reality unmendable and obscene Here's to every nonbeliever in this world both beautiful and sorry Believing in their own terms glorious and free, though rather* painfully
I'm with the ones who are shoved at the back for their beliefs. I have some pretty liberal and weird beliefs myself. I'd say I am not a conservative person at all so I could look on to their beliefs as an extension of mine.
