Believe

The day god closed her eyes
my mother says
she felt
twenty angels
that came through the window and helped him to fly
my sisters wept and I stepped
further from faith
the most beautiful sky turned to grey
but hey - the memories seem real
it’s been years since I’ve prayed
still insisting
that I don’t want to feel
like you feel

I set it all on fire
and watched the walls collapse
I stand alone and tired
now I want it back
and even if everyone is a liar
I don’t want to be
within this silent choir
I want to believe
in something
I want to believe in something


When I close my eyes
will they come for me
will you not believe that I
I’ve learned how to fly
will I still be singing
somewhere in heaven
I wonder if angels can cry
I hope they come for me
I hope I see something
I hope that I
walk into the white light
walk into the white light

I set it all on fire
and watched the walls collapse
I stand alone and tired
now I want it back
even if everyone is a liar
I don’t want to be
within this silent choir
I want to believe

In something
in something

I want to believe
to believe in something
I said I

I set it all on fire
and watched the walls collapse
I stand alone and tired
now I want it back
and even if everyone is a liar
I don’t want to be
within this silent choir
I want to believe
I want to believe in something
I want to believe in something
I want to believe in something
but god closed her eyes
I want to believe in something
I want to believe in something
I want to believe in something
but god closed her eyes

I want to believe in something
I want to believe in something
I want to believe in something
but god closed her eyes
we all want to believe in something
I want to believe
in something
