Believe Me

Fort Minor · The Rising Tied [2005]

Chorus

I guess

That this is where we've come to

If you don't want to

Then you don't have to believe me

But I won't be there when you go down

Just so you know now

You're on your own now believe me



I don't want to be the one to blame

You like fun and games

Keep playin 'em

I'm just sayin

Think back then

We was like one and the same

On the right track

But I was on the wrong train

Just like that

Now you've gotta face the pain

And the devil's got a fresh new place to play

In your brain like a maze you can never escape the rain

Every damn day is the same shade of grey



Hey

I used have a little bit of a plan

Used to

Have a concept of where I stand

But that concept slipped right out of my hand

Now I don't really even know who I am

Yo, what do I have to say

Maybe I should do what I have to do to break free

And whatever happens to you, we'll see

But it's not gonna happen to me



:Chorus:



Back then, I thought you were just like me

Somebody who could see all the pain I see

But you proved to me unintentionally

That you would self-destruct eventually

Now I'm thinking like the mistake I made doesn't hurt

But it's not gonna work

Cause it's really much worse than I thought

I wished you were something you were not

And now this guilt is really all that I got



Uh

You turned your back

And walked away in shame

All you got is a memory of pain

Nothing makes sense so you stare at the ground

And hear my voice in your head when no one else is around

So what do I have to say

Maybe I should do what I have to do to break free

And whatever happens to you, we'll see

But it's not gonna happen to me



:Chorus:



Instrumental Break



:Chorus:



I'll do what i have to do

You're on your own now believe me



Whatever happend to you?

You're on your own now believe me



What do I have to say?

You're on your own now believe me



It's not gonna happen to me

You're on your own now believe me
