[Verse 1]
I tried to tell Him there's pain here and suffering too
I tried to pray but the angels said "we're too busy for you"
Had a talk with my Mama about losing my beliefs
'Cause since she lost her Mama, the Lord's been helping with her grief

[Pre-Chorus]
She said He might just be a big story
But there's more to life than truth
There's hope my son and people's faith
Gives them strength to pull through

[Chorus]
But what if the world is a hopeless place?
We're just scared to admit we're alone
What if the world is a hopeless place
And we're on our own
We're on our own

[Verse 2]
There’s beauty in nature and parables from kingdoms we knew
I’m not expecting much after, I’ll make the most of my dues

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I believe He’s just a story
And I'm looking for the truth
I have faith in my own journey
With those I love to help me through
[Chorus]
'Cause I know the world is a beautiful place
Too full of love to be alone
I know the world is a beautiful place
But we're on our own
We're on our own
