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
I had a talk with my mama
About losing my belief
'Cause since she lost her mama
The Lord's been helping with her grief

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

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

There’s beauty in nature
And parables from Kingdom we knew
I’m not expecting much after
I’ll make the most of my dues

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

Cause I know the world
Is a beautiful place
Too full of life to be alone
I know the world
Is a beautiful place
But we're on our own
Yeah, we're on our own
