"Faith" is suffice for comfort If the abyss encroaches on thee But only the Surgeon prevails Making blind eyes see "Faith" deceives and says the pivot Of the universe is the human race When the crux of our existence Is lost somewhere in outer space "Faith" is impotent next to fact When Reason is apace But ignorance defends itself For fear of losing face "Faith" just means a belief Held uncritical, unthinkingly But I have become a sceptic Oh Science, inform me

Beyond Belief
"Faith" is suffice for comfort If the abyss encroaches on thee But only the Surgeon prevails Making blind eyes see "Faith" deceives and says the pivot Of the universe is the human race When the crux of our existence Is lost somewhere in outer space "Faith" is impotent next to fact When Reason is apace But ignorance defends itself For fear of losing face "Faith" just means a belief Held uncritical, unthinkingly But I have become a sceptic Oh Science, inform me
