I Could Believe You

(album: A Song That Never Ends - 2016)

I could be your lifeline
But you cut me long ago
I could give forgiveness
But your heart is far too cold
Blame it on my own pride
Place the fault on anyone but you
What would be the difference?
No one sees the wicked deeds you do
Breath of fire and poison
Words are laced with lies and twisted truth
Cure me of temptation
Save me from the devil that I knew
Nobody can help me now

Wish I could believe you
When you say your love is fair
Wish I could believe you
When you say the feeling's there
Wish I could erase the marks you left
From clawing out my soul
Wish I could believe you
But faith has left a burning hole

I could be a wise man
But you'd whisper in my ear
Death could bring me silence
But you've manifest through fear
Trapped inside the madness
Demon on the earth and after life
Lies and disappointment
Drawing from my blood without a knife
We can make it through this
So long since I managed my escape
Is it best to follow
Or is it best to give in to your fate
Trapped inside with no way out

Wish I could believe you
When you say your love is fair
Wish I could believe you
When you say the feeling's there
Wish I could erase the marks you left
From clawing out my soul
Wish I could believe you
But faith has left a burning hole

Held inside my head
A heart I thought was dead
Rises from the dust
Still the bane of us
I don't want to see
I don't want to see
I don't want to see
I don't want to see
You replace me
I don't want to be...
I don't want to be...
I don't want to believe
Your voice somewhere in me

Wish I could believe you
When you say your love is fair
Wish I could believe you
When you say the feeling's there
Wish I could erase the marks you left
From clawing out my soul
Wish I could believe you
But faith has left a burning hole

Wish I could believe you
When you say your love is fair
Wish I could believe you
When you say the feeling's there
Wish I could erase the marks you left
From clawing out my soul
Wish I could believe you
But faith has left a burning hole

Wish I could believe you
When you say you'll never die
Wish I could believe you
When you say you're still alive
