I don’t think this song is even about God. It’s about the people who supposedly believe in him. It’s ironical that they believe in him, but have so many uncertainties, so many questions. If you believe in God, why so unsatisfied in his presence; why ask about heaven when God is right there in the picnic with you? That’s so stupid. The puppet show in the music video was obviously just a puppet show. Yet people went to see the show to be reassured, asking questions to something that was obviously just a puppet. Again, that symbolizes how people can be really stupid. This song is a mockery to all those people who believe in God but only do so because of a reward, not from the sincerity in their hearts. Sad to say some of the most horrible people you meet are very religious ones or those who claim to be believers (not all of course). On another note, some people only believe in God to further their own desires and ambitions; they would only believe in him in the condition that they get what they want. Near the end of the music video, the kid who was disappointed that the puppet was just operated by a person (duh!) walks out disappointed and fails to see the drunk, homeless man. The songwriter in this song, regardless of his own beliefs, is not trying to convince people that there is no God. The main star of the song is people. What this song is less about is whether or not there is a God. |
