I knew it searching a Staind’s video on YouTube. The first result was Believe … and I didn’t remember a song with that title in their discography. So, I’ve visited their website and I found a nice present: The Illusion of Progress, the new album! There isn’t some news, no new sound in this album… when I’ve listen to it the first time, I’ve thinked that it wasn’t something special. But the second time was different: I really think that it could be the best album made by Staind until now.

And now the video of the new single: Believe! Good watch.

Lyric

I sit alone and watch the clock
Tryin to collect my thoughts
All I think about is you
And so I cry myself to sleep
And hope the devil, I don’t meet
In the Dreams that I live through

[CHORUS]
Believe in me
I know you’ve waited for so long
Believe in me
Sometimes the weak become the strong
Believe in me
This life is not always what it seems
Believe in me
Cause I was made for chasing dreams

All the smiles you’ve had to fake
And all the *shit* you’ve had to take
Just to lead us here again
I never have the things to say
To make it all just go away
To make it all just disappear

[CHORUS]

It’s my life
It’s my choice
Hear my words
Hear my voice
and just believe

I sit alone and watch the clock
Tryin to collect my thoughts
All I think about is you
If you believe in me
Life not always what it seems
Believe in me
Cause I was made for chasing dreams.

[CHORUS]

Testo

Sono seduto da solo e guardo l’ora
Provo a raccogliere i miei pensieri
Tutto ciò a cui penso sei tu
E cosi piango cercando di dormire
E spero di non incrontrare il diavolo
Nei sogni in cui vivo

[RIT]
Credi in me, lo so che hai aspettato cosi a lungo
Credi in me, a volte la debolezza diventa forza
Credi in me, questa vita non è sempre quella che sembra
Credi in me, sono nato per inseguire i sogni

Tutti i finti sorrisi che hai dovuto fare
E tutta la merda che hai dovuto subire
Solo per portarci qui dinuovo
Non ho mai avuto le giuste parole
Per fare in modo che tutto cio si allontanasse
Per fare in modo che tutto cio scomparisse

[RIT]

E’ la mia vita
E’ la mia scelta
Ascolta le mie parole
Ascolta la mia voce
E prova solo a credere

Sono seduto da solo e guardo l’ora
Provo a raccogliere i miei pensieri
Tutto ciò a cui penso sei tu
Se mi credi
La vita non è sempre quella che sembra
Credimi perchè sono stato nato per inseguire i sogni

[RIT]
