Believer

Took me over like a fever

Caught you hiding in the smoke, smoke, smoke

Like a meteor, I glow, glow, glow

Ooh

Lay your red hand on me, baby

Ooh, ooh

As I go

...

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

...

What you gonna do? What you gonna do?

What you gonna do? What you gonna do?

What you gonna do? What you gonna do?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

Well, I'll release her

From the bindings of her teachers

What they're hiding there is broke, broke, broke

Like the River Styx, I flow, flow, flow

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

What you gonna do when you get to the water?

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

Into the sea, out of fire

All that burning

...
