Believe Testo

BELIEVE (lyrics) - The Cure

The longer I stay,
the more I seem to lose.
It's an argument I use
to take me away.
And the closer I get,
the less of me there is.
I remember it like this
to make me forget.
Yeah, the older I grow,
the more of me is gone.
It's a way of holding on,
to let myself go.
And the louder I shout,
the less i really care.
It's the attitude I wear
to get myself out.

The strange thing is
I haven't changed at all.
Seemed so sure
you would stay my girl.
The strange thing is
I haven't changed at all.
Wanted so much to believe...

Maybe too much to believe... (x2)
But the harder I try,
the less I ever do.
I convince myself it's true
to bear me alive.
And the sooner I stop,
the more of me is wrong.
It's a kind of putting on
to tear me apart.

Yeah, the closer I get,
the less of me there is.
I remember it like this
to make me forget.
And the longer I stay,
the more I seem to lose.
It's the argument I use
to take me away.
