With overlaid spoken recordings
My wish is just selfish, maybe ignorant. But I beg you to put back the sense in my life
Are you there? I, I , I just called to see if you're there. Sometimes, sometimes I feel I'm weak, sometimes I hate you, mostly, I, I, just wonder if you're there. Are you there?
God, If you are love, then why are we subjected to an increasing injustice throughout the world? Do you show us love by tormenting us? It doesn't make any sense.
[edit] Vocari Dei
- I just want you to speak to me.
I'm still waiting for you, God. I pray because it deserves to be finished. Goodbye God, goodbye to you all.
I don't trust in any God, I don't know who God is, but I know what God should be.
Well take a look here, take a good look at what you've created.
Hi God, this is Lorenzo, I wanted to ask you something. Why life is so hard? Why love is so cruel? why I can't really be me, not someone else. I just want to be me.
Hey, God, this is (??). I just called to thank you for being with me when my life seemed to fall apart. You carried me through my darkest hours and I'm very grateful for that. Thank you.
Hi God, it's me from earth. I know you haven't returned any of my previous calls, but maybe you're simply not there. But here it goes again. I wanted to thank you for giving me the opportunity to be part of this world, but didn't you also give us people the minds to explore and question? So where are you? and where have you been when we needed you the most? (this part was said by Ilan Rosenfeld from Israel)
(???? ?? ?? ?? ?) I must be drunk or far away, for I no longer believe in you anymore. So I talked to another priestess, cuz I figured this out, for all the horror, the grief and suffering in this world, either you are a cruel entity for not changing things, or you don't exist.
Please tell me why these horrible things happen? Why did those two towers have to fall? and how can you let that happen? Does there have to be such hatred in this world? Why must society struggle to build, (??? ??) tolerance?
I've prayed every day for weeks now, why won't you answer my prayers? Prove to me and so many others why I should continue to pray? I have faith in my friends and my family, isn't that enough?
Child mumbling: "Hello, hellooo"
Please God, if you exist, help me believe that the world is real, that I am real, and that my feelings are real, that we are more than just a coincidence.
This world has what we can give.
(same as 15) Speak to me, I wont ask you to save me, I just want you to speak to me.
Hi, and I apologize to you for, you know. I just want to say I'm sorry, and, thank you. Oh, and one more thing, please, help me fly.
Please, come and take me away from this shit, I cant take it any more. They're all devouring me, I have no?? left. I'm so lost. God? (cries)
Kamisama-san,naze sensou, naze shi,naze kiga.naniwodesuka.omaeha naniwotameniiru.sayonara.(in English)Dear God,why is there war? why is there death? why is there starvation?What for?What is your reason to be?...Good-bye...
Geia Thee, anarwtiemai... Poso shmantikoi s' auto ton kosmo? pou phgainoume? (in English) Hello God, I wonder...what are we? What's our importance in this world? Where are we going to?
Aah, yeah, er, listen God, um, I'd just like to say a really big thank you on behalf of e, everybody. Thanks for getting the whole thing started, and for getting it off the ground, but, I think that this time we have really screwed things up, and I am so, so sorry.
I need you now, I need you.
