Buzzcocks - I Believe lyrics
by peter shelley
buzzcocks _a different kind of tension_
IRS CD 70055 1980
in these times of contention
it's not my intention to make things plain
i'm looking through mirrors
to catch the reflection that can't be mine
i'm losing control now
i'll just have to slow down a thought or two
i can't feel the future
and i'm not even sure that there is a past
i believe in the workers' revolution and
i believe in the final solution
i believe in
i believe in
i believe in the shape of things to come and
i believe i'm not the only one, yes
i believe in
i believe in
when i poison my system
i take thoughts and twist them into shapes
i'm reaching my nadir and
i haven't an idea of what to do
i'm painting by numbers but i can't find the colours that fill you in
i'm not even knowing
if i'm coming or going, if to end or begin
i believe in the immaculate conception and
i believe in the resurrection and
i believe in
i believe in
i believe in the elixir of youth and
i believe in the absolute truth, yes
i believe in
i believe in
there is no love in this world anymore
there is no love in this world anymore
i've fallen from favour
while trying to savour experience
i'm seeing things clearly
but it has quite nearly blown my mind
it's the aim of existence
to offer resistance to the flow of time
everything is and
that is why it is will be the line
i believe in perpetual motion and
i believe in perfect devotion
i believe in
i believe in
i believe in the things i've never had and
i believe in my mum amd my dad and
i believe in
i believe in
there is no love in this world anymore
there is no love in this world anymore
i'm skipping the pages
of a book that takes ages for the foreword to end
triangular cover concealing another aspect from view
my relative motion is just an illusion of stopping too fast
the essence of being
these feelings i'm feeling i just want them to last
i believe in original sin and
i believe what i believe in, yes
i believe in
i believe in
i believe in the web of fate and
i believe i'm going to be late
so i'll be leaving
what i believe in
there is no love in this world anymore
there is no love in this world anymore x 16
