I believe, I believe

I believe, I believe

I'm on the cusp of my star sign
Bbm Ab
I'm an agnostic, I'm on the cynic side
Db Gb
When it comes to God, I cannot decide

Another a piece of me compartmentalised

I've read the magazine personality quiz

I'm living in a secular age,

looking for someone to blame
Looking for someone to love me,

to save or be saved
Ab
And so this year I abstained
Bbm
in almost every way
I cut off all of my hair,
Gb
I didn't eat for days

I couldn't satiate

this hunger I contain
I had my body bathed in holy water,
Gb
down the drain

A vacancy, an apathy
Bbm Ab
God, the normalcy's wearing off on me
Db Gb
And the medicine is a funny thing
Bbm Ab
It's the dopamine, it's synthetic and
Db Gb
When I call a friend, we don't mention it
Bbm
Discussing the weather while

and God still won't let me in

I believe in you and me, God,

honey, put your faith in me

But it's the future, it just is

It's the future, it just is
