Lyrics
by STYVYN
From the commencement of life
We’re expected to pretend
We are taught to believe
Things we cannot comprehendWe are told that somewhere up above
A friend is guiding our lives with his loveAnd the moment we die
We will get our reward
In eternity’s hand
We will be with our lordBut it’s not true
It’s completely insane
It’s all fantasyThere is no imaginary friend, imaginary faith, imaginary hope, imaginary love
Now as I look at the world
And I see reality
I am fully aware
Of my own mortalityEvery moment is sacred to me
Each day brings a chance to be who I want to beBut I need time to unlearn
All those things that are untrue
My thoughts were not my own
But part of the mass collective delusionReason has shown me
There’s no imaginary friend, imaginary faith, imaginary hope, imaginary loveIf there is no god in the sky
Why should we care, why should we even try
To be moral human beings
The answer is reciprocityI have faith in the human race to be loving neighbors
Without imaginary friends, imaginary faith, imaginary hope, imaginary loveI have faith in the human race to find understanding, to be loving neighbors
Without imaginary friends, imaginary faith, imaginary hope, imaginary love© 2010 New Age of Reason
