Believe It
Brian Kennedy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Only a fool swallows every rule, paper calls protection
What we can and cannot use
Nothing belongs here, nothing realized â?? while I might
It only feels like feeding compromise
Happiness is something more than learning when to smile

Once I thought that I could never heal enough but now I'm starting to receive it
All I want to do is get a message through, it's important to believe it

After the healing had begun to climb, we were all so
Caught within ourselves we never really held the time
How can I feel what I just don't feel
How can I expect myself to recognise the one that's real
Hope can be closer beside you â?? if you make the room

Once I thought that I could never heal enough but now I'm starting to receive it
All I want to do is get a message through, it's important to believe it
All I want to do is get a message through, it's important to believe it





Once I thought that I could never heal enough but now I'm starting to receive it
All I want to do is get a message through, it's important to believe it

Line by Line Meaning

Only a fool swallows every rule, paper calls protection
Blindly following rules just because they exist is foolish; we should question and choose what is truly best for us, regardless of what the authorities say.


What we can and cannot use, Nothing belongs here, nothing realized – while I might, It only feels like feeding compromise
Society sets limitations on what we can and cannot use or achieve, but we should strive to fulfill our potential and not settle for mediocrity, even if it means going against the norm and facing criticism from others.


Happiness is something more than learning when to smile
Happiness is not just about putting on a happy face; it's a deeper emotional state that can only be achieved through personal growth, connection with others, and finding meaning and purpose in life.


After the healing had begun to climb, we were all so, Caught within ourselves we never really held the time
Once we start to heal from our past traumas and emotional wounds, we may become self-absorbed and forget to appreciate the present moment and the people around us.


How can I feel what I just don't feel, How can I expect myself to recognise the one that's real
It's difficult to feel emotions or connect with someone if we don't genuinely experience them, and it's even harder to recognize what is truly authentic and genuine in a world full of superficiality and deception.


Hope can be closer beside you – if you make the room
Hope is always present and available to us, but we need to create space in our lives for it to enter and remain.
