The Gathering Field - I Believe! I Believe! lyrics

Saw the wave hit the shore

Saw it clear, like I never had before

It was spiritual, I nearly lost control

Felt it in my soul

Now I can't remember, try as I may

Exactly what it was that sent my spirit spiraling that day

Chorus:

I believe! I believe! (Anyhow)

I believe! I believe!

Maybe love is a rose

Or maybe it's a gun you use to shoot off your toes

Tell me, what's the difference to a working stiff

Looking for a lift?

Could be love of the spirit, might be love of the flesh

We all need some kind of living to find some happiness

Chorus

It's easy to be cynical, it's easy to see through it all

It's easy to be angry and the world and just say, "Screw it all!"

But it don't take a hero to put blinders on his eyes

And just believe

I believe! I believe!

Don't know what happens when you die

Can't seem to figure it no matter how I try

Are you dead and gone, or does your soul live on

In hell or in heaven?

Say a prayer to Buddha baby, say a prayer to Christ

You got to cover all your bases, get some everlasting life

Chorus

I got some weaknesses inside

Or are they demons, I never did decide

You know the truth to tell, I spent some time in hell

I guess it's just as well

It's a baptism by fire and it ain't a pretty sight

I wrestled my desires and I still ain't won the fight but . . .

Chorus
