BAD RELIGION - Shattered Faith lyrics

rate me

The scientist purported that there ain't no purpose<br>And the theologian told me that it's all been designed<br>And I'm trying to maintain objectivity<br>The world won't illuminate what really matters<br>And I'm an imperfect moral meaning extractor<br>Processing the complexity<br>Born of the earth (are we blind? )<br>We weren't given a choice (there's no way)<br>What about free will? (what we have)<br>Do we have a voice? (is shattered faith)<br>See them run in place (here and now)<br>In the human rat race (no reward)<br>So much dead weight (no debate) to our disgrace (accept your fate)<br>Life begins when you accept your fate<br>Paralysis from forces raging out of control until<br>My confidence and will are at an all-time low<br>Just directionless wandering<br>Eternal life, eternal truth, eternal secrets<br>Isolated hopes and hypotheses just<br>Leave me feeling so hungry<br>Born of the earth (are we blind? )<br>We weren't given a choice (there's no way)<br>What about free will? (what we have)<br>Do we have a voice? (is shattered faith)<br>See them run in place (here and now)<br>In the human rat race (no reward)<br>So much dead weight (no debate) to our disgrace (accept your fate)<br>Life begins when you accept your fate<br>Right or wrong,<br>The main criterion is what you do and not what you say<br>The roads you take, the friends you make and those you throw away<br>The method is a simple synthesis of the past and present state<br>You never lose if the path you choose is one you can easily navigate<br>I had a dream, light and carefree<br>But now there's doubt and gravity<br>But I won't run in place (are we blind? ) in the human rat race (there's no way)<br>I can set the pace (what we have) and accept my fate (is shattered faith)<br>Shattered faith (here and now)<br>Shattered faith (no reward)<br>The part of me (no debate) I can't erase (accept your fate)
