Believe

I can't believe
That when I breathe
That there's something good inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me
So close to me
That memory
Of that one good thing inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me Yeah. If I went out the back door, nobody would stop me
But, where would I go?
'Cause I ain't ever had a real home
So, what do I know?
So, I could keep runnin', hide untill they find me
But, what would that do?
If they could only know what I knew
What would it prove?
I shoulda' seen the writin' on the wall
Instead, I'm left to fall
'Cause the longer I'm away,
The more I stay the same
Lookin' back, when I thought I knew it all
Instead, I'm left to fall
Did I throw it all away?
I can't believe.
That when I breathe.
That there's something good inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me
So close to me.
That memory.
Of that one good thing inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me
Yeah. Don't you know, little boy, they'll lay you to waste, man
Little do they know, every song is a lifespan
Haven't taken one, but I'm takin' my last chance
To hold all we know and let go with both hands
Oh, don't you know that clouds are made from concrete?
Right through the stone, can you hear my heart beat?
Beats through my bones, like the memory left me
Not for a second or a minute when I dream
I wanna go home, like a home that I keep
You can dig six or sixty-six feet
We can live forever, still your misery missed me
Hold this song together with a bottle of whiskey
Look into the mirror at the lines that time drew
Seen 'em painted white in the eyes that shine through
My heart beats heavy in an open chest
And, I wanna say goodbye, but there's nobody left. I can't believe
That when I breathe
That there's something good inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me
So close to me
That memory
Of that one good thing inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me
Yeah. I broke it all, and I'm put to the test
Put your hand to mine, and feel this emptiness
There's no beat in my chest
'Cause there's nothing left
No, it ain't goodbye, it's a last caress
What's another dream?
You can hardly sleep
Can you believe bad things only happen to me?
God knows one day, you will finally see
That scars will heal, but were meant to bleed
Do you realize I would lie for you?
Please have my last breath, I would die for you
I know I'm no good, but my heart beats true
You know I'm gonna fight, though I might be scared to lose
You took me in, and I fucked it up again
And an empty promise, no, I won't pretend
'Cause in the end, we need someone to solve 'em
Nobody can fix me if I'm part of the problem. I can't believe
That when I breathe
That there's something good inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me
So close to me
That memory
Of that one good thing inside of me
Just one good thing inside of me
Yeah.
