Saw the wave hit the shore
Saw it clear, like I never had before
It was spiritual, I nearly lost control
Felt it in my soul
Now I can't remember, try as I may
Exactly what it was that sent my spirit spiraling that day

I believe! I believe! (Anyhow)
I believe! I believe!

Maybe love is a rose
Or maybe it's a gun you use to shoot off your toes
Tell me, what's the difference to a working stiff
Looking for a lift?
Could be love of the spirit, might be love of the flesh
We all need some kind of living to find some happiness

I believe! I believe! (Anyhow)
I believe! I believe!

It's easy to be cynical, it's easy to see through it all
It's easy to be angry and the world and just say, "Screw it all!"
But it don't take a hero to put blinders on his eyes
And just believe
I believe! I believe!

Don't know what happens when you die
Can't seem to figure it no matter how I try
Are you dead and gone, or does your soul live on
In hell or in heaven?
Say a prayer to Buddha baby, say a prayer to Christ
You got to cover all your bases, get some everlasting life

I believe! I believe! (Anyhow)
I believe! I believe!

I got some weaknesses inside
Or are they demons, I never did decide
You know the truth to tell, I spent some time in hell
I guess it's just as well
It's a baptism by fire and it ain't a pretty sight
I wrestled my desires and I still ain't won the fight but

I believe! I believe! (Anyhow)
I believe! I believe!
