Believing / Like War - Live from my backyard

I hear you putting yourself down
You say to me that you belong in the ground
I see the pain behind your twisted smiles
You're walking on the road of self-deprecation for miles

What would it take for you to believe that you are smart?
Ignore their condescending looks, 'cause I see it in your art
Above all your superficial qualities, you've got a better heart
So tell me, what would it take for you to start believing?

You know I'm not good with words, or saying what I'm feeling
But I know I'd do anything just to help you start healing
I don't have the words to say it
But I'm hoping this song will display it
Since I'm out of words to say
Just know this song is true and that I'll stay

I want you to open up to me
Tell me what you need to be happy
Open up to me
Tell me what you need to be

What would it take for you to believe that you are smart?
I know it's hard for you, but I've already done my part
No matter what you say despite yourself
I'll still think that you're smart
So tell me, what would it take for you to start believing?

I want you to open up to me
Tell me what you need to be happy
Open up to me
Tell me what you need to be

What would it take for you to believe that you are smart?
Ignore their condescending looks, 'cause I see it in your art
Above all your superficial qualities, you've got a better heart
So tell me, what would it take for you to start believing?

I'm gonna bash my brains in
'Till I can't feel a thing anymore
Yeah, this feeling is taking
Over my body like war

And when you say those words
I feel my heart rip out
I see you run with it
I know without a doubt
You're gone

And it makes me wanna go like
Step out, step out of your head
And realize you're not always right
Step out, step out of your head
Before we get into another fight
Step out, step out of your head
And realize you're not the only one with feelings
Step out, step out of your head
Before you make me stop believing

You keep hitting me
'Till it's not worth feeling anymore
And I feel like you're taking
Over my body like war

And when I hear those words
I feel my lungs rip out
I see you run away
I know without a doubt
You're gone

And it makes me wanna go like
Step out, step out of your head
And realize you're not always right
Step out, step out of your head
Before we get into another fight
Step out, step out of your head
And realize you're not the only one with feelings
Step out, step out of your head
Before you make me stop believing

And I know that it's not worth the pain you give me
And I know it's not his plan
But I keep going back
So God forgive me

And I know all the deception and lies
Could never turn right again
But I don't want this to be the end

No, I don't want this to be the end
Oh God, I don't want this to be the end

Thank you!
