When you tried to build me up with the wrong words, all it did was kill me.
And when you said you trust in all that I feel, I never quite believed you.
And when you tried to help me out by telling me how we should be, I disagreed.

So hold me up, and you should see you're not supposed to be my enemy.
I know you're side. I understand, but you can let me feel it's safe in my hands.
You're every word is full of doubt. I've never had a way 'til now to let it out.
If this is how it's gotta' be, it will never be easy.

You can make this very easy if you can show me you believe me.
You could kill me.
You can kill me, or you can make this very easy.

So let me breathe. Just let me be. I'd show you more than you could ever hope to see.
Intentions are the same I find, but even if they are I still need room to shine.
So give it time and give it space: this isn't just a slap across your face.
If this is how it's gotta' be, I will never speak freely.

You can make this very easy if you can show me you believe me.
You could kill me.
You can kill me, or you can make this very easy.

Won't you believe in me? Won't you believe in me?
Believe in me, now.

Do you believe me?
You gotta' believe. You've gotta' believe me.
Do you believe me?

You can make this very easy if you can show me you believe me.
You could kill me.
You can kill me or you can make this very easy.

You can make this very easy. You can show me that you believe me.
You can kill us. You can kill me, or you can make this very easy.
