Out There Searching
We're all out there searching
For something on which to spend our time
To make us all feel better
As we move on down the line
With all these newfangled religions
Popping up like temple gardens in Kathmandu
No wonder there's so many people
Out there without a clue
With every New Age Preacher
Spouting off they know the way
Leading their blind believers
Into the pit with what they say
Where they don't need to dig any deeper
Not to overly concerned with right or wrong
Just nodding to the rhythm
Like you would a Justin Timberlake Top 40 song
All the time hoping when you die
That you've been good enough
No explanations or reasons why
You feel that way because
It's in our human nature
To always want for more
Needing questions answered
Of what the afterlife holds in store
So if you feel unsatisfied
In the search that your life is on
Pick up the good book, the Bible
And start off at page One
