Believe Me
Rie Sinclair Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or just stand in my doorway?
I fight to keep my temper
Try to figure what to say
"Please believe me",
You tell me as if I don't
Well, please believe me,
(That) Chances are you'll loose yourself
Loose yourself to someone else
I made that mistake when I was young
And the time it takes to give it back
Is somewhere that I don't know if
I can stay anymore
You found courage to let your heart through
And I don't want to let you down
Its a little late to get to
How this can all go wrong
"Please believe me",
You tell me as if I don't
Well, please believe me,
(That) Chances are you'll loose yourself
Loose yourself to someone else
I made that mistake when I was young
And the time it takes to give it back
Is somewhere that I don't know if
I can stay anymore
But you love & you loose
And you take & you choose
And you don't even know what you've done
And if you want it someway
But forget how to pay
And you don't even know what you've done...
The lyrics of Rie Sinclair's "Believe Me" speak of a conversation between two people, where one person seems to have just arrived at the other's doorstep unexpectedly. The singer is trying to keep their emotions in check, struggling to decide what to say to this person. The visitor tells the singer to "believe me," suggesting that they are trying to win back the singer's trust. However, the singer warns the visitor that they may end up losing themselves to someone else, just like the singer did when they were younger. The time it takes to give oneself back after losing oneself to someone else is unknown, and the singer is unsure if they can stay in this situation any longer. The visitor has found the courage to let their heart through, but the singer does not want to let them down, warning them of the possible outcome.
Line by Line Meaning
Did you mean to take your coat off
Are you here to stay or just passing through?
Or just stand in my doorway?
Are you here to come in or leave?
I fight to keep my temper
I'm trying to stay calm and level-headed.
Try to figure what to say
I'm struggling to find the right words.
"Please believe me",
You're pleading with me to trust you.
You tell me as if I don't
As if I haven't already been trying.
Well, please believe me,
I'm doing my best to trust you.
(That) Chances are you'll loose yourself
There's a possibility you may lose who you are.
Loose yourself to someone else
To someone who may not deserve it.
I made that mistake when I was young
I learned the hard way when I was younger.
And the time it takes to give it back
It's hard to regain that sense of self.
Is somewhere that I don't know if
I'm not sure I can get that back for you.
I can stay anymore
I'm not sure if I can keep going.
You found courage to let your heart through
You're brave enough to open up to me.
And I don't want to let you down
I don't want to disappoint you.
Its a little late to get to
It may be too late for us to fix this.
How this can all go wrong
The potential consequences are scary.
"Please believe me",
You're pleading with me again to trust you.
But you love & you loose
You take risks in love and sometimes lose.
And you take & you choose
You make choices and live with the consequences.
And you don't even know what you've done
Sometimes it's hard to see the impact of our choices.
And if you want it someway
If you desire something badly enough.
But forget how to pay
If you forget the true cost of what you're pursuing.
And you don't even know what you've done...
You may unintentionally harm yourself or others trying to get what you want.
