One billion souls staring up into the stars   Praying to a god    To save them from whom they are   Millions go missing at each other and every turn   Get lost in the words   Truth or fiction? In a book      Clutch on to symbols   Plea for miracles   Hope for some common good   In this unforgiving world      Buy back our innoncence   We can repent from our sins   We can heal all our pain from television evangelists   Throw our trust in faith    That one day we will be saved   We can flush our dollars down the drain   For the modern day      Clutch on to symbols   Plea for miracles   Hope for some common good   In this unforgiving world      Show me a sign   Shed me some light   After this darkness   There´ll be some paradise      I stand in doubt   I must admit   How can there be a god    In a world like this?   I stand and doubt
