Believe Me Lyrics

To a woman I have never met

Someone said I looked like you

And that makes me feel a kind of debt that I cannot repay

Though I feel bad about it

From the pictures he let slip through the cracks online

You have my eyes

And you're mixed, so am I

Maybe that's why, all things considered, I made it out alright

And if I told you

Would you believe me

And if you read what I wrote, you would hate him too

Believe me

Someone said you went through with the wedding

Are you happier now

Than if I said

That what he did to her wasn't singular

What he did to them

Just a feeling, just needed a ride

Don't wanna assume

A bruise of a man seeking empathy

A two-sided coin where his mouth should be

Your name an excuse or a betting streak

When he has none to lose

So if I told you

Would you believe me

And if you read what I wrote, you would hate him too

Believe me

Someone said that you went through with the wedding

Are you happier now

Than if I said

That what he did to her wasn't singular

What he did to them

I'll think of you instead of hating him

In another life, you are my friend

And no one got hurt
