    Q & A

    by: Too Bad Eugene

    Would He, would He have spared us all if He'd been more kind
    Most never find what they need
    Plagued by free will they watch their spirits die
    You call this design?
    But does a man's confusion
    Prove there's a contradiction? It may to that one
    It's caused so much commotion
    Cause no ones found a good solution, could there not be one?
    Creation seems like God's game to keep himself amused
    We tend to loose our patience
    We think an explanation's overdue
    But who would that soothe?
    So in our irritation
    We assume revelation has been given to none
    And divine inspiration is gone out on a prolonged vacation
    With faith from when we were young
    We're here and we wait for love from anyone
    But we can't see Him
    Most of us, we just close our eyes
    Cause we think he died in our learning
    Could it be, He's been here all along
    But our hearts were wrong to receive Him
    Could it be He waits with open arms
