Nothin' to Believe In

Always thought dreams came true
That's what they tell ya
You can be whatever you want to
They try and sell ya
But when they've torn the last paper flower off the float in your parade
There will be nothin' left to believe in that day

(CHORUS)
Nothin' to believe in
Nothin' at all
Not a thing to pin my hopes on
And no one to call
When the spell is finally broken
And my heart becomes my own
I'll have nothin' to believe in
In this city alone

Used to think people were kind
For the most part
That they try to do the right thing
But that's a lost art
When the last one of your heroes has exposed his feet of clay
Then there's nothin' to believe in today

(CHORUS)

It’s a beautiful ride when you’re on there
But a ride that is sadly too brief
Cause reality is such a know-it-all
And a thief

Always thought someone would find me
Who could hear what I don't say
And it felt like you were my someone
When I first heard you play
But then the world turned from magenta to a cold shade of grey
And I got nothin' to believe in today

Nothin' to believe in
Nothin' at all
Not a thing to pin my hopes on
And no one to call
When the spell was finally broken
And my heart returned to me
Well there was nothin' left to believe in
That I could see

Nothin' to believe in
Nothin' at all
I was hoping for a miracle
And headed for a fall
Now the spell is finally broken
My heart is safe behind the wall
And I got nothin' to believe in after all

(REPEAT CHORUS)

So the world turns from magenta to a cold shade of grey
And I got nothin' to believe in anyway, yeah
I got nothin' to believe in today
