I never kneel, At the altar of love anymore I don't bow my head To what's in my heart like before 'Cause when they told me what you'd done How you cheated and you lied It's like somebody told me god had died
I believed you and me Had a sacred love eternally I believed that honesty Was a holy word we shared I had a faith you couldn't shake, The strongest thing I'd known Now all I believe in Is leavin' believin' alone
How could you vow To honor and love only me Stand there straight faced Whispering sweet blasphemy 'Cause when I asked you for the truth And you looked me in the eye That was when the truth was crucified
I believed you and me Had a sacred love eternally I believed that honesty Was a holy word we shared I had a faith you couldn't shake, The strongest thing I'd known Now all I believe in Is leavin' believin' alone
I could pray or cry all day But what good would it do Nothing in heaven or earth Could bring me back to you
I believed you and me Had a sacred love eternally I believed that honesty Was a holy word we shared I had a faith you couldn't shake, The strongest thing I'd known Now all I believe in Is leavin' believin' alone
