Ted Leo
Used to Believe
[Verse 1]
I used to believe in someone
Who could never be painted for false
I was that someone, certain but wrong
Who wouldn’t deceive

[Verse 2]
I used to believe in something
That could never be taken apart
Young and united, fighting of course
And happy to be

[Verse 3]
I used to believe in something
Like a magical chemical spark
I used to believe we could free it now
And I want to believe that alone in your arms again

[Verse 4]
I used to believe
That the best you could do with it all
Was rise to the sorrow and every day
Try to fight the lost cause

[Bridge]
I used to believe
And I want to believe that alone in your arms again
I used to believe
[Outro]
I used to believe
We'd be comfortably settled by now
Settled right down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down, down down, down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
