in times like these I wish there were
a God I believed in
whose words and teachings
I consume day by day
from when I awake to when I sleep
before a meal and after a trip
just so I know I'll be saved
just so I know I am saved
just so I know
I can be safe
in times like these I wish there were
a God who has a plan
so perfect and precise
every little tear I cry every night
is designed to flow and collect
enough to cleanse
until all the sadness is washed off of me
until everything would seem right
in times like these I wish there were
a God who could explain
why living is pain
how anger turns to pain
when living became pain
in times like these I wish there were
a God I could blame.

It's been so long since I stopped believing. I am yet sad again.
