Using the metaphor of an absent father, this is a song written to God; a commentary that we, as a people, have made a mess of things in many ways, and we could use a little Divine intervention, if you will.

Story behind the song
helplessness, I suppose
Lyrics
THE 8th DAY 2009 April Higuera Your crazy mind dreamed up this place You built this house with love and faith Mother says that you would have stayed But it didn’t turn out like you wanted I’m chasing you down halls long haunted Wait Don’t leave us here alone Yeah we made a mess of things Wait We can’t fix this on our own We admit we weren’t listening Can you please tell us just one thing What happens on the 8th day? I thought my life was safe in your hands My simple mind just can’t comprehend That you conceived this God awful plan I was sold on love and laughter Now I’m running from this disaster Wait Don’t leave us here alone Yeah we made a mess of things Wait We can’t fix this on our own We admit we weren’t listening Can you please tell us just one thing What happens on the 8th day? Black and white, no middle Love or fight, your riddle So few try to figure out Wait Don’t leave us here alone Yeah we made a mess of things Wait We can’t fix this on our own We admit we weren’t listening Can you please tell us just one thing What happens on the 8th day?
