lyrics

Iv got no Gods, no religions found
Just a little focus with whats on the ground
Because I have faith in my fellows, peers and peoples
Instead of being consumed by spires, domes and steeples

They say only those who have suffered, can know pure peace
Well I've been suffering, not for myself, but for my loved ones for weeks
There's only so much I can get by on, with Agnostic beliefs
So its time to explore some universal theories

Books of prophets and gods
Pre-written concepts about the origins of
A Chinese whispers dynasty
Descends down round upon me

Honesty's a virtue
A virtue bestowed to not few, but many
Don't forget that the good of the people is plenty
The imagination is a beautiful thing
And beautiful is what the imagination brings
