Title: We Believed
Lyrics We BelievedI was young I didn't know
That all comes and that all goes was the truth
I just believed
Vietnam and Jesus Christ
Symbols of what I despise
Look at me, I've been deceived
Someone said that all that glows is not like gold
The things you want to keep are hard to hold
Every lie that we've been told cuts closer to the bone
(Don't you know that you've got to fight a little harder
Fight a little harder boy)
Fight a little, fight a little more
Politics is genocide
We're stripped of thought and tranquilized
It's a fool who just believes
See that girl in the long white dress
She don't know that this is the best that it gets
It's make believe yeah
So here you are with a TV guide and a wedding ring
Time goes by, now what's it done to you
Is passion lost in youth
Every lie that we've been told cuts closer to the bone
(Don't you know you've got to fight a little harder,
Fight a little harder boy)
Fight a little, fight a little more
When you close your eyes it's hard to see
That's the easy way to die
(Don't you know you've got to try a little harder,
Try a little harder boy)
Try a little, try a little more
They will believe it They will believe it
When you're young, you don't know
That all that comes and all that goes is a lie
You just believe
Someone said that all that glows is not like gold
The things you want to keep are hard to hold
Yeah, they're hard to hold
Every lie that we've been told cuts closer to the bone
(Don't you know you've got to fight a little harder,
Fight a little harder boy)
Fight a little, fight a little more
When you close your eyes it's hard to see
That's the easy way to die
(Don't you know you've got to try a little harder,
Try a little harder boy)
Try a little, try a little more |
