Believe

Well, I was holding on, now I'm letting go
This is nothing more than a big show
Everything I knew, now I hardly know
Busy keeping less, never getting more
One more nickel, dime, I'm out the door
This kind of life I can't afford

Oh, I want to believe in something to believe
I would live only just to believe
Oh, I'd love to believe that it's not only me
Who's longing only just to believe
So believe
'Cause I want to believe
Oh, I want to believe, oh, ah

Oh, I can't bring my mind to these bitter words I said
Trying to get myself to get out of my way
Birds in the trees just make me depressed
Seeing sunny skies, feeling emptiness
Layers of lies just seem to fold
This kind of life is all I know

Oh, I want to believe in something to believe
I would live only just to believe
Oh, I'd love to believe that it's not only me
Who's longing only just to believe
So believe
'Cause I want to believe
Oh, I want to believe, oh, ah

Oh, my voice is fine to smile, life is all pretend
And I'm plastic, I'm hoping
Oh, I'm sorry I can't seem to stay
But this bird was meant to fly away
Yeah, fly away, fly away, hey, yeah
Oh, fly away, just fly away
Layers of lies just seem to fold
This kind of life is all I know

Oh, I want to believe in something to believe
I would live only just to believe
Oh, I'd love to believe that it's not only me
Who's longing only just to believe
So believe
'Cause I want to believe
Oh, I want to believe, oh, ah

Oh, no, no
No, no, no
I want to believe, I'd love to believe
I can believe in something
I want to believe, I'd love to believe
I can believe in nothing
I want to believe, I'd love to believe
I can believe in something
I want to believe, I'd love to believe
I can believe in nothing
