You say this isn't where you belong
The big white church
In the middle of the village
With thick large walls
Both shuts in and shuts out
Gates with worn away thresholds
But still impossible to cross
You say this isn't where you belong
No place for people like you
Among people like us
The uninvited guest
Among those believers
The giant question mark
That never stops asking

The doubter in a room filled with the blissful
Always at the mercy of others
Another world, so near
Another world, so far away

You say this isn't where you belong
Because you're not like us
The one whose strength isn't enough
Whose faith always falls short
Whose life seems lacking
Who has nothing at all to offer
Because you're not like us
I say this is where you belong
You're scarred and bruised
Your earnest prayers bounced
Back from the ceiling
Echoed empty between the walls
You've prayed to a God
Who doesn't seem to be there

The doubter in a room filled with the blissful
Always at the mercy of others
Another world, so near
Another world, so far away

I say this is where you belong
The image that you've got
Is different from the one I have
My image of us
Resembles your image of yourself
We're all the ones who 's inadequate
I recognize myself in you
And this is where we all belong
In the eyes of God
Where the broken and incomplete
Can find solace for a while
Where prayers bounces off the ceiling
Because God can be found here
Or wherever you are

The doubter in a room filled with the blissful
Always at the mercy of others
Another world, so near
Another world, so far away
The doubter in a room filled with the blissful
Always at the mercy of others
Another world, so near
Another world, so far away
