Lyrics
What I Believe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lies and deceiving is what I'm believing.
Up to my knees, so hard to breathe.
It helps that you are there.
Can't figure out what's the right thing for me.
Guess I'll have to wait and see.
So understanding but so far from the truth.
It's what I have to live with,
It's not all I wanted to be,
It's not all I wanted to see.
I can't keep on leading.
I've left what I'm living.
I guess that's just what I believe.
Consciously taking and overly faking.
I can't believe all the things that you're saying.
Seems all so simple it's all up to you.
Time after time, you lost what you couldn't find.
It's what you could. (What you could)
It's only what you could.
It's what you could. (Could)
Don't take not what you could.
But I know what's up.
So understanding but so far from the truth.
It's what I have to live with,
It's not all I wanted to be,
It's not all I wanted to see.
I can't keep on leading.
I've left what I'm living.
I guess that's just what I believe.
I guess that's just what I believe.
I guess that's just what I believe.
