I Want To Believe Lyrics - Ugly Duckling

Yeah yeah, I've heard it before 

It's just a bunch more words that I'm sure to ignore 

This time I'll need evidence, you know exhibit A 

And if it's secret, leak it, give it away 

You'll drop hints, but never a fact 

And it's a trap, gonna have to do better than that 

I don't wanna be a fool, I'm feeling naive 

So please write it all down, leave it easy to read 

In clear, concise, nice plain English 

I get tripped up trying to distinguish 

The pimp from the pastor, meek from the moocher 

So tell me then, are you a friend or a user 

Who sets a trap like a web to a fly 

So come right and exact, look me dead in the eye 

And don't sell me, promise me, tell me 

Honestly, why

[Chorus:] 

Can you give me some kind of sign 

A meaning defined so I can believe 

Can you give me a way to be sure 

I can trust in your word 

Cause that's what I need 

Can you give me a reason for change 

You'll need to explain so I can believe 

Can you give me a moment of truth 

And indisputable proof cause that's what I need 

Because I wanna believe, I wanna believe 

Because I wanna believe, I wanna believe 

Photos 

Ok I made my point, I'll need to see it to believe it 

And anyway, faith is so inconvenient 

Dealing with the guilt, feeling hypocritical 

I just end up being sick and miserable 

Life's fast, I need to try to maximize 

Self gratify, till I collapse and die 

What then, I don't wanna think about it 

It's too deep, I gotta keep my head clouded 

So give me entertainment and happy pills 

And we'll pretend it's all sunshine and daffodils 

It's what I've done since I was two years old 

And if it's true you can lose your soul 

Well I just laugh at your statement of facts 

Don't say absolute, you'll get taken to task 

I don't really wanna change and my life is in vain 

Then I ask 

[Chorus] 

Because I wanna believe, but I don't wanna believe 

Because I wanna believe, but I don't wanna believe 

I wanna believe, but I don't wanna believe 

Einstein take me on outta here
