Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
And I've collected all these thoughts And I'm dying just to lose them And if Your words are true or not I'll die trying to prove them But I'll just have to accept That my mind is so inept And that the only thing that's left For me to do is to trust you Convince me because I really need your help Convince me, because I can't see this former self I'll put the emphasis on the evidence, Begging for the proof Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth This is so unnerving, I know you've never lied to me before But the things you're telling me, I can't yet believe, yet can't ignore But I'll just have to accept That my mind is so inept And that the only thing that's left For me to do is to trust you I'll put the emphasis on the evidence, Begging for the proof Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth So to place our lives into Your hands Confide in what you do Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth Its the world full of cynics You say to stay alive in it, You've got to stick with what you know But the soul is always aching For the heart to start taking, A chance by letting go(So let go(let go)) Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth So to place our lives into Your hands Confide in what you do Sometimes when you're trying to sleep When all your doubts and your faith don't agree It's cause Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
