I Want to Believe
Unveiling the Hollow: Decoding New Found Glory's Cry for Genuine Connection
Lyrics
Feels like I'm panicking, exploding in my head
Feeling overwhelmed and anxious, a mental explosion.
I think it's time I gave it some attention
Recognizing the need to address a specific issue.
Silhouettes back at your expense
Referencing the negative impact on someone else.
Forgetting all the soul in their expressions
Noticing a lack of genuine emotion in others.
Let's face it, you're a business man
Describing someone as a business-oriented individual.
Who has a way with his words
Acknowledging their skill in communication.
Put your money where your mouth is
Encouraging actions to match words with financial commitment.
Give me something that I can sing
Requesting meaningful and substantial contributions.
It's in your eyes: you're lacking honesty
Observing a lack of sincerity through their eyes.
You traded in your heart and emotion
Noting the abandonment of genuine feelings and emotion.
You barely break it open
Commenting on the difficulty of breaking through emotional barriers.
I wanna believe but believing is not for me
Expressing a desire to believe but facing skepticism.
So put your money where your mouth is
Reiterating the call for meaningful action and commitment.
It's a revolving door, you're always wanting more
Describing a repetitive cycle of constantly seeking more.
But there's no room for truth in their intentions
Highlighting a lack of truth in their intentions.
It should be something more
Expressing the need for something deeper and more meaningful.
Than bright lights and crowds for you
Challenging the pursuit of superficial elements like fame and attention.
Something more, something that I hold true
Seeking authenticity and true values.
Don't break me until you finally have direction
Warning against causing harm until a clear purpose is found.
