You say he does not exist
there is no higher place
no love after life
just an empty space

When you hurt
you scream out his name
shifting what has been done
making him take the blame

You pray in your shell
a shell of self pity
living like dead
inside an empty city

And if that was not enough
you begin striping the minds
of those who are confused
you pull down their blinds

But if there is no God
then why do you face him
to yell out your fears
tearing him limb from limb

If he does not exist
please tell me then
why you call him out in the night
"You can't have me .. You won't win!"

If there is no God
then why are you mad
if he does not exist
then why make him so sad
