lyrics

Wore my knees, beliefs
Deep enough to free
The bone and the fact I found there

Spun and spun the circles,
And stretched and stretched the cycles
Wide enough to pin them into squares

And the logic is steady
And the logic is heavy
And best of all the logic is fair--

But if I'm not a believer
Then what is pushing me forward door to door to door?
And if I'm not a believer
Then what am I holding out for?

Took a chance and bet it
Along with luck and fate
Guess they were not destined to be mine

Seek it out, relentless
No second guesses
My love is a straight line

And color never looked this bright
Never looked this alive
Never was as honest as this black and white--

But if I'm not a believer
Then what is pushing me forward door to door to door?
And if I'm not a believer
Then what am I holding out for?

Right to the edge I go
Right to the edge I hold
Right to the edge I go
Right to the edge I hold

So if I'm not a believer
Then what is pushing me forward door to door to door?
And if I'm not a believer
Then what am I holding out for?

Right to the edge I go
Right to the edge I hold
