Believe Me

Originally an instrumental, but it felt like it needed vocals. The lyrics are based on an idea I had for a one-shot comic that didn't pan out. It's about a chuunibyou character named Matt who thinks the FBI is after him. His friend(?) Amelia, who doesn't share in his delusions, comes over to study together, but it turns out the FBI *is* actually after Matt for real, so they have to go on the run and things just keep escalating to the point of absurdity, yada yada, it's also a romance somehow... Anyway, the lyrics are vague enough that you'd never read any of that into the song, but that's what it's about. LYRICS Amelia's comin' over But they're on my heels again She looks at me with clovers in her hair And questions in her eyes as I say: Come on, take my hand We'll fly away to the promised land Just me and you We'll show them what our love can do (Whoa) But she doesn't believe me, she doesn't believe me (No) Well she doesn't believe me, she doesn't believe me Out in the woods, Find a spot to catch our breath I can hear 'em in the distance barkin': You take the right I'll take the left But Amelia, sweet Amelia (ahhh) Did you know I never knew that you knew that I knew what's really goin' on with me and you Come on, take my hand We'll fly away to the promised land Just me and you We'll show them what our love can do (Whoa) But she doesn't believe me, she doesn't believe me (No) She doesn't believe me, she doesn't believe me You gotta believe me (ahhh) Oh you gotta believe me–No!
