where was god
when i needed a friend
where was god
when i came to an end
where was god
when i lost my mind
where was god
when i couldn't find

don't want to be up or down

where was love
when i felt like hate
where was hate
when i felt like love
where were you
when you said you'd be there
where was the fear
when i said i was scared

tell me what you believe
i'll tell you
what you should see
'cause i don't know
who to trust
my heart is filled with disgust

i can't take this

ladies and gentlemen
may i have your attention
are you ready for the joke
are you ready for the
great deception
