Look at you standing in the rain
Holding out your hands to stop the pain
What do you believe in now?
What do you believe in now?
It didn't work out the way you planned
No one seems to understand
What do you believe in?
What do you believe in now?
What do you believe in now?
Your faith it is dying
But you keep on trying
To do the best that you can
The decision was hard
Now look where you are
And you just don't understand
Why
Whatever happened yesterday
Your future's just standing in your way
What do you believe in now?
Your faith it is dying
What do you believe in now?



Even now, sometimes you just feel like walking away.
It's getting harder and harder to understand why you stay.
And sometimes you just want to lay down and die.
And you just don't understand why.
And I know because I've been there.
I've walked those streets.
I've breathed that same cold bitter air.
I've seen the same things.

I've seen the faces that turn away from me and go to places that I could never be.
I've walked down every street and I've knocked on every door.
I've got down on my knees and prayed I can't take it anymore.
I was looking for an answer, but I couldn't.
I don't understand.
What was tearing down the boy was building up the man.
And even though you feel just like walking away.
And most of the time you don't understand.
Why you stay.
And one day you'll look back at all these trials in your life.
Then you'll understand why.
Why you stay.
Why you stay.
Why you stay.
Why you stay.
