Lyrics
I believe Well, that's what I heard I believe Funny little word
Dallas, nineteen sixty-three Three shots ringing through the street A rifle high above the road A story tied up nice and neat
One man running, one man blamed One bullet doing quite a lot Through a President, through Connally Then turning up as Exhibit One
And everybody learned the phrase Before we'd learned to ask just when Magic bullet, lone gunman I believe I believe again
I believe means maybe I believe means true I believe means somebody I have decided to trust for you
I believe means probably I believe means amen Funny how a question mark Can disappear by half-past ten
I believe, I believe Tell me what you know Not what you need me to believe Show the photograph Show the file Show me how you travelled every mile
I believe, I believe But belief is not the evidence underneath One gun, one man One neat little end
I've heard that one before I believe again
Utah, twenty twenty-five One shot cuts across the air A young man falls before a crowd A rifle found, a suspect there
One rooftop and one accused A case to test, a court to run But before the lawyers take their seats The internet has already won
Some say strange things of the round Some swear they know exactly when Some have solved it from a screen I believe I believe again
I believe means likely I believe means doubt I believe means I've picked a side And now I can't climb out
I believe means trust me I believe means friend And sometimes it means Don't ask me how I got there in the end
I believe, I believe Tell me what you know Not what you need me to believe Show the photograph Show the file Let the awkward facts sit there a while
I believe, I believe But belief is not the evidence underneath One shot, one man One neat little end
I've heard that one before I believe again
I believe the sun comes up That's prediction
I believe this bridge will hold That's expectation
I believe there's a seventy percent chance That's probability
I believe in you That's trust
I believe in freedom That's a principle
I believe the Government Well
Which one did you mean?
You don't have to call it false Just because you haven't called it true
You don't have to join a tribe Because somebody asks"Which side are you?"
Leave a little room for maybe Leave a little room for when The next file lands The witness talks And everything gets weighed again
A sceptic isn't someone Who refuses to believe He's someone who remembers Belief can still deceive
Magic bullet Single shooter Lone wolf Case closed
That's a beautiful story
Now show me what you know
I believe, I believe I'll change my mind when better evidence speaks Show the photograph Show the file Put every explanation on trial
I believe, I believe That certainty should cost A little more than belief
No team, no tribe No predetermined end
Ask me tomorrow I'll weigh it again
I believe But I don't have to pretend
I believe And I can change it again
I believe something
How much?
And why?
