"Faith is Fiction"

Intro: (Slow, melancholic melody)(classic piano) (female vocal) (country style) (rock drums) Verse 1: I’ve seen the world, its beauty and its blight Examined souls, from morning to the night A tapestry of hope and human strife But faith, it’s just a fairytale of life Chorus: (male vocal) Faith is fiction, a placebo for the weak A crutch for those who cannot truly seek (female vocal) The answers lie in science, cold and clear Not in the whispered prayers, filled with fear (male vocal) (country style) (rock drums) Verse 2: I’ve seen the sick, their bodies slowly fade Desperation’s grip, a haunting masquerade They cling to hope, a supernatural cure While evidence and logic can’t endure (violin solo) Chorus: (male vocal) Faith is fiction, a placebo for the weak A crutch for those who cannot truly seek (female vocal) The answers lie in science, cold and clear Not in the whispered prayers, filled with fear (viola solo with piano) (style rock) (heavy drums) (bass) Bridge: I’m not a monster, just a realist’s mind Searching for the truth, humanity to find But in this world of wonder and of pain Faith remains a stubborn, futile stain Chorus: (male vocal) Faith is fiction, a placebo for the weak A crutch for those who cannot truly seek (female vocal) The answers lie in science, cold and clear Not in the whispered prayers, filled with fear (country style) (rock drums) Verse 3: (Male whispery voice) So spare me your sermons, your pious decree I’ll find my own path, wild and free No heaven or hell, no eternal chase Just the complex beauty of the human race. (Female melodic voice) So, if you think faith can solve it all And logic’s a burden, a needless thrall You can kiss my ass, and let me be I’ll find my own truth, you see.
