I Couldn't Believe Lyrics

I wasn't there when it all fell apart

I kept believing in the power of prayer

My heart said that time was slipping away

My head kept my heart from getting its way

Is it over now?

Don't make a move she's coming this way

Better stay busy and fill up my day

All will be well if I just close my eyes

My faith is just fear in disguise

Is it over now?

Is it over now?

I couldn't believe

That loss was a thing

That could happen to me

I could never conceive of

A life that was missing its only piece

Every moment every memory

Slipping away before I could recall them

I couldn't believe

That loss was a thing

That could happen to me

You promised that light would always win out

But ev'ry story has lines blacked out

We did what you asked faithful and true

Hearts have been broken lips are blue

We're sick of the stories sick of the lies

Tired of conforming to the plan you devised

Wish they had warned us pain was in store

Maybe I'd never opened that door

I couldn't believe

That loss was a thing

That could happen to me

I could never conceive of

A life that was missing its only piece

Every moment every memory

Slipping away before I could recall them

I couldn't believe

That loss was a thing

That could happen to me

Didn't I earn it?

I was such a good boy

I did what you wanted

Is this what I get for my prize?

I couldn't believe

That loss was a thing

That could happen to me

I could never conceive of

A life that was missing its only piece

Every moment every memory

Slipping away before I could recall them

I couldn't believe

That loss was a thing

That could happen to me
