Simple words might influence your view
|
|
But I can save your life if you allow me to
|
|
Remember the time right before you became
|
|
Something too despicable to even name?
|
|
I can relate, I went through that stage too
|
|
And I hope you're still around when you're 22
|
|
('cause) Nothing really matters--but yourself (x2)
|
|
Simple words might often miss the point
|
|
But here's two words you better not ignore
|
|
Do you really believe that any man is an island
|
|
Will if you do then you're about to be stranded, man
|
|
Nothing...
|
|
BRIDGE
|
|
Give another person just half a chance
|
|
To express himself
|
|
It's easy to believe
|
|
Believe in something other--than yourself (x2)
|
|
You wrote a letter (I)
|
|
But I knew better (you)
|
|
You can clearly (see)
|
|
Just what the effect is
|
|
Will you ever (be)
|
|
Be together (oh)
|
|
Enough to tell me (why)
|
|
Why does this have to happen to anyone?
|
|
Nothing...
|
|
BRIDGE
|
|
Simple words are often misconstrued
|
|
But occasionally somebody's advice is worth listening to
|
|
I've stated my case, now I'll return to my place
|
|
But there will come a day when black marks won't erase
|
|
Nothing...
|
|
BRIDGE
|
|
Believe...
|
|

|
Believe in Something Other (Than Yourself)
