Question the Answer

Most people don’t ask the right question, few people wanna hear the right answer But everybody can feel when it’s getting cold, feel the chill when the Pluto wind blow Winter is coming ... And when it gets here, will you be one of those mongrel dogs who try to bury the bones of the truth deep in the snow Winter is surely coming ... So many people are so far from the Son, living in their dark Pluto world As so many questions about faith swirl Most people don’t see the path leading the right way, few people fall to the ground to see what the snow covered tracks say Most hear the wind whisper: you don’t have to pray Choose how you wanna live, for this cold world is colored wretched gray When you hear the mean Pluto wind blow — question the answer Then ask God which way to go When you hear the murmur of the people, question their complaints Ask them did God ever not know Most people don’t even know how to frame the right question Few people will sacrifice everything to find the right answer Winter is coming soon ... How many days of total darkness will eclipse the Pluto moons? How many lying night visions will be seen by the blind false prophets of your doom?

Thank God I don't have to go thru a winter...although the heat can be irritating at times... This is the line that stuck out for me "so many people are so far from the Son" Very good... Have a nice day
