Some days aren’t yours at all,
They come and go as if they’re someone else’s days
They come and leave you behind someone else’s face
And it’s harsher than yours
And colder than yours

Science
Science: A way of finding things out and then making them work. Science explains what is happening around us the whole time. So does religion, but science is better because it comes up with more understandable excuses when it is wrong. There is a lot more science than you think.
