[English]

Do you believe in love?

Do you believe in shame?

And if love can conquer all

then why do we only feel the pain?

I heard you speak my name

Heard you singing the stones

Maybe heard you laughing in a line

of static on my telephone

So why your eyelids are closed

Inside a case of rust

And did you have to change

all your poets fired, into frozen dust?

I've tried to justify it

To learn from your mistake

But where's the stupid lie

that has to make its point

with such a pointless waste

Come out

Do you believe in shame?

Do you believe in love?

And if they taste the same

would you love again, or abandon both?

I don't think I ever can

Believe my friend has gone

Keep saying it's alright

I'm gonna bring you back

But I know I'm wrong

There's nothing I can say

There's nothing left to do

It's just that lately I feel so damn lonely when I think of you

And it makes me selfish now

But I'll hold on to the memory

Until all this fear is washed away

Do you believe in love?

Do you believe in life?

'Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me

Will never die

'Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me

Will never die

'Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me

Will never die

'Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me

Will never, die
