Song Description
a song about hypocrisy in religion, and those who claim an answer to the unanswerable. Almost enough of the doctrine of organized religion makes sense, but not enough. The idea that My God can beat up your God, along with the claim of being in touch with the almighty makes it hard to believe.

Lyrics
I never knew there was an answer for all the problems in the world, I never knew that all I had to do was trust in you and all I had to do was hear the "word"
I didn't know you had the power, I was lost - I didn't have a clue. And all along all I had to do was do as you say, but never do as you do.
-chorus_
I'll take your hand
You can show me the promised land
You claim to know the way
I can almost believe....
I've been lookin' for a long time
and I don't like the things I see
and I've been searchin' for the truth,
and when I see the thongs you do
it makes it hard to believe
-chorus-
I'll take your hand
You can show me the promised land
You claim to know the way
I can almost believe....
You're the one that's got the answers
you're the one that owns the truth
and everyone who needs to find their way
can only find it through you
and do you see whay I have to find my own way
coz I can see you were pretending all along
now my eyes are open wide,
and I can see the things you hide
You thought you fooled me but you were wrong
I believed you, but not for long
how much longer can you go on?
