Science of Myth Songtext
von Screeching Weasel

If you ever question beliefs that you
Hold, you′re not alone (Not alone)
But you oughta realize that every myth is a metaphor (Metaphor)
In the case of Christianity, its duty is to narrate its history
Its spiritual matters are enslaved to history
The Buddhists believe that the functional
Aspects override the myth (Override the myth)
While other religions use a literal core
To build foundations in (Foundations in)

See, half the world sees the myth as fact
And 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 our 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 who's faith
Helped her make it through (Make it through)
But she was raped and cut up, left for dead in a
Trunk, 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 if it works, then it gets the job done

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