Modern Scrutiny - Light of the Second Sun Lyrics

He said, "How can you not see the beauty
In this world of which you are a part?"
She said, "I think I see it more than you do
But through the lens of chance, not as a work of art"
She said, "Human life is elaborate contingency
Barely a thread in your cosmic tapestry"
But he continued to walk his flat Earth
In the light of the second sun
Downplaying all inconsistency
He just kept praying to God
His mind so rife with conspiracy
He bore his soul so zealously
She couldn't deprogram such fervency
He could never fathom apostasy
No God, no rules: a package deal
And she prayed the Lord his soul to steal
No love for her could he ever feel
If she couldn't accept the Truth as real, no
So he continued to walk his flat Earth
In the light of the second sun
Downplaying all inconsistency
He just kept praying to God
No God, no Truth: a package deal
And she prayed the Lord his soul to steal
He wouldn't fight the battle that he'd already won
So he walked in the light of the second sun
