| Me and Matt were talking, and we came to a point in the conversation where he answered everything with the phrase "because you believed it". Whatever it was, this was the answer. He was trying to get me to look at things from a different angle, to understand that things seemed the way they did to me only because of what I believed- and that maybe what I believed was wrong. |

I sit alone in the dark My heart's a question mark I want to be free again Don't keep me waiting in vain Don't keep me waiting in vain Pressure's on my mind You can relieve it We're two of a kind You can't conceive it Now you've crossed the line Because you believed it Because you believed it Locked up for so many years None of the pain disappears Memories that time can't erase I see all over your face I see them all in your face Pressure's on my mind You can relieve it We're two of a kind You can't conceive it Now you've crossed the line Because you believed it Because you believed it Birds fly and what do they care What keeps them up in the air? Don't fear what you may reap The angels are asleep The angels are asleep The angels are asleep Pressure's on my mind You can relieve it We're two of a kind You can't conceive it Now you've crossed the line Because you believed it Because you believed it |

| It may be no great discovery, no secret, but it could explain a lot. |
