Seeing is Believing?
I’ve been told seeing is believing
So how can I believe it is air that I am breathing?
How can I believe that it is love I am feeling?
Or that my life is controlled by a greater being?
Maybe we need to sit down
Take a deep breath in air that we don’t believe in
Ponder on our non existent thoughts
Wonder on our imaginary faith
Is it safe to think that my life is in my hands?
Or that a greater being exists holding the strings of this puppet
But I don’t see any strings
So my life is in my hands
But what if those strings were tied around my hands
Placed behind my back where I can’t see
Then where is my life going to be placed?
Matter of fact I can’t see my life
This theory is starting to confuse me
Maybe I need to stand up because this seat is driving me crazy
My mind is gone
But how can it be?
That I can feel such emotions but I can’t see?
Maybe I’ve been taking this theory far too seriously
Maybe this theory is just utter bullshit
Devised to confuse and make me refuse to believe
Devised to make me lose faith in a greater being
So maybe I’ll disregard this theory
Believe what I choose to believe
Not listen to all of the crap that I seem to hear
Because it could be the devil whispering in my ear
So how can I believe it is air that I am breathing?
How can I believe that it is love I am feeling?
Or that my life is controlled by a greater being?
Maybe we need to sit down
Take a deep breath in air that we don’t believe in
