lyrics

[Spoken word]
If I accept that God exists and God is perfect, is it not then reasonable to conclude that everything that comes from God must also be perfect? Us and this world included?

[Verse 1]
Than what, then what of old age
And what of disease
Of physical pain
And what of memory loss
Of energy fade
Of bodily death?

[Chorus]
Search how is it perfect
Guess what is its purpose
What is objective
Divine design for?

[Verse 2]
Then what, then what about flesh
The killing to eat
The blood on the plate
And what, and what of abuse
Of twenty four weeks
Of murder and rape?

[Repeat Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Then what of bewilderment
Confusion of mind
Beginning and end
And what of for and against
Of species divide
Of enemy / friend?

[Instrumental]

[Repeat Chorus]

[Spoken word]
Is it possible that my perception of imperfection ... be it of samsara, the cycle of birth death old age disease, to extreme things like abuse, rape, and even murder ... is caused by mistaken understanding of objective? But what on Earth could that possibly be?

[Repeat Chorus x2]
