I Don't Believe
CHROM Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is no dream this is no lie
It′s just the truth about this time
And all the things that we should know

Nobody cares about the weak
But everybody loves the freak
The more you speak the less you show
And this world makes me sad

Truly I could make things right
And change all the things now in my life
But I don't
I don′t believe in you
Would you step into the light
And show your effort to save a life
But I don't
I don't believe in you

Some people try to escape the war
Some people just try to ignore
And everybody knows the truth

So don′t be scared just for today
And try to walk another way
It′s time to show compassion now
Not only in your head
This world makes me sad

Truly I could make things right
And change all the things now in my life
But I don't
I don′t believe in you
Would you step into the light
And show your effort to save a life
But I don't
I don′t believe in you
Truly I could make things right
And change all the things now in my life
But I don't
I don′t believe in you
Would you step into the light
And show your effort to save a life




But I don't
I don't believe in you
