Lyrics

If I were your god, would I free you from religion,

or direct any decision that you’d make,
when you have it all inside to shape the world around you,
standing in the light of a brand new day?

 

Would I need a book with all the answers                                           

if you’d question the answers you know?
Would I let you look, eyes closed while praying,
at the skies above or the ones that make you grow?

 

If I were your god, would I free you from religion,

or direct any decision that you’d make,
when you have it all inside to shape the world around you,
standing in the light of a brand new day?

 

Would you need to build a house of marble and gold                          

if I were just a carpenter’s son?

Would you be fulfilled when wisdom only unfolds

in the absence of glitter, free to everyone?

 

If I were your god, would I free you from religion,

or direct any decision that you’d make,
when you have it all inside to shape the world around you,
standing in the light of a brand new day?

 

Would you let me be your god if I made you hurt                               

or use hate to spread my message of love?                

Would you let me be your god if this heaven on earth

no longer bound the differences we’re made of.

 

If I were your god, would I free you from religion,

or direct any decision that you’d make,
when you have it all inside to shape the world around you,
standing in the light of a brand new day?
