ben weasel - science of myth [live, chicago 2008] lyrics

if you’ve ever questioned beliefs that you hold, you’re not alone
(not alone)
you oughta realize that every myth is a metaphor
(metaphor)
in the case of christianity
and judaism there exists belief
that spiritual matters are enslaved to history

the buddhists believe that the functional aspects override the myth
(override the myth)
while other religions usе the literal core to build foundations with
(foundations with)
see, half thе world sees the myth as fact
it’s seen as a lie by the other half
and the simple truth is that it’s none of that
’cause somehow, no matter what, the world keeps turning

somehow we get by without ever learning
somehow, no matter what, the world keeps turning
somehow we get by without ever learning

science and religion are not mutually exclusive
in fact for better understanding
we take the facts of science and apply them
and if both factors keep evolving
then we continue getting information
but closing off possibilities
makes it hard to see the bigger picture
consider the case of the woman whose faith helped her make it through
(make it through)
when she was raped and cut up, left for dead in a trunk
but her beliefs held true
(beliefs held true)
it doesn’t matter if it’s real or not
some things are better left without a doubt
and, and if it works then i guess it gets the job done
’cause somehow, no matter what, the world keeps turning

somehow we get by without ever learning
somehow, no matter what, the world keeps turning
somehow we get by without ever learning
we get by, we get by, we get by
without ever learning anything
we get by, we get by, we get by
without ever learning
