Do You Believe Me?
The Juliana Theory Lyrics

When you tried to build me up with the wrong words,
Your attempt to uplift me with the wrong choice of words had a negative impact on me.

All it did was kill me
Your words made me feel worse instead of better.

And when you said you trust in all that I feel,
Although you claimed to trust my feelings, I still did not believe you.

I never quite believed you
Your words lacked sincerity and accuracy, making it hard to trust them.

And when you tried to help me out By telling me how we should be, I disagreed
Your advice on how we should act did not align with my perspectives, leading to disagreement.

So hold me up and you should see, You're not supposed to be my enemy
If you support me, you will realize that we are supposed to be companions, not adversaries.

I know your side, I understand But you can let me feel it's safe in my hands.
I understand your point of view, but please let me have control and feel secure with my own decisions.

Your every word is full of doubt, I've never had a way till now to let it out
Your words have been doubtful and uncertain, and I never found a way to express my frustrations about it until now.

If this is how it's gotta be, It will never be easy
If we continue on this path, it will never be straightforward or effortless.

You can make this very easy, If you can show me you believe me!
If you express your belief in me, our situation could be much simpler and less complicated.

You could kill me, you can kill me, Or you can make this very easy!
Your lack of trust could be detrimental to our relationship, or you could show faith and make things more comfortable.

So let me breathe, just let me be, I'd show you more than you could ever hope to see.
Allow me space and freedom to show you what I am capable of, which might exceed your expectations.

Intentions are the same, I find. But even if they are, I still need room to shine.
Our motives align, but I still require the opportunity to express myself and showcase my capabilities.

So give it time, and give it space. This isn't just a slap across your face.
Let us take our time and allow the situation to breathe, as this is not a direct attack or confrontation.

I will never speak freely!
I cannot express myself freely due to the lack of trust and understanding.

Oh, won't you believe in me? Won't you believe in me? Believe Believe Believe in me.. Believe in me... now!
Please believe in me because that could positively impact our relationship and lead to progress.

Do you believe me? You gotta believe, you gotta believe me! Do you believe me?!
It is crucial that you trust me if we want to move forward, so please ask yourself if you believe in me.

You can make this very easy, If you can show me you believe me!
If you express your trust in me, our situation could improve significantly.

You could kill me, you can kill me, Or you can make this very easy!
Your lack of faith could hurt our relationship, but you have the option to trust me and make things easier.
