"Believer" lyrics

Oh, by design, the knives come out
As the company gets ready
Over water and silicone
Another ancient headache
It's a hell of a cost with hell to pay
How the hell'd it stay so steady?
Mmh, waterways are clogged and jammed
They suffocate the jetty

And all the time I wondered
How to get ahead

We look it in the eye as it goes by
The experts say the experts lied
At least we tried, kiss them goodbye
Believers, oh
We look it in the eye as it goes by
We had no time, the time went by
All this time we just been trying to be heard
Oh

(One more rule to bend, defy)
It's the kind of thing we're known for
(One more fool to win the prize)
Yours or mine, they find themselves a way
(Stumble and you're left behind)
Who do you think they'll save?
(One less layer to hide behind)
History repeats yet again

It's a wonder that we still try to survive

We look it in the eye as it goes by
The experts say the experts lied
At least we tried, kiss them goodbye
Believers, oh
We look it in the eye as it goes by
We had no time, the time went by
All this time we just been trying to be heard

We look it in the eye as it goes by
The experts say the experts lied
At least we tried, kiss them goodbye
Believers
We look it in the eye as it goes by
We had no time, the time went by
All this time we just been trying to be heard
Oh
