Amy Arena - Why
You know, Jesus was just a carpenter
The prophet Muhammed, he was an ordinary merchant
And Abraham was a shepherd
The only one who was already a king was the Buddha
But the Buddha gave up his throne
When he saw how the people lived
He wondered "Why is there so much suffering?"
And when he looked at the sky
He wondered who created it
He decided "I don't know"
That was it
That was his answer
I think it's a pretty cool answer
I kinda like the Buddha for saying that
I don't know
Hey, I don't know why life can be so rough either
And I don't know who created us
Or why we are here
I just don't know
But when I think about it
I think about it like this:
Sometimes the question is worth more than the answer
