[Chorus]
Are we growing up or just going down
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears and put them on ice
'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light
We're the therapists pumping through your speakers
Delivering just what you need
We're well read and poised
We're the best boys
We're the chemists who've found the formula
To make your heart swell and burst
No matter what they say, don't believe a word
Cause I'll keep singing this lie if you'll keep believing it
I'll keep singing this lie
I'll keep singing this lie
[Chorus]
We're traveled like gypsies
Only with worse luck and far less gold
The kids you used to love
But then we grew old
We're the lifers here til the bitter end
Condemned from the start
Ashamed of the way
The songs and the words own the beating of our hearts
[Chorus]
There's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up
And another around to help us bend your trust
I've got a sunset in my veins
And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay
[Repeat: x2]
The best part of "believe" is the "lie,"
I hope you sing along and you steal a line
I need to keep you like this in my mind
So give in or just give up
Are we growing up or just going down
[Chorus]
Are we growing up or just going down
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears and put them on ice
'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light
We're the therapists pumping through your speakers
Delivering just what you need
We're well read and poised
We're the best boys
We're the chemists who've found the formula
To make your heart swell and burst
No matter what they say, don't believe a word
Cause I'll keep singing this lie if you'll keep believing it
I'll keep singing this lie
I'll keep singing this lie
[Chorus]
We're traveled like gypsies
Only with worse luck and far less gold
The kids you used to love
But then we grew old
We're the lifers here til the bitter end
Condemned from the start
Ashamed of the way
The songs and the words own the beating of our hearts
[Chorus]
There's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up
And another around to help us bend your trust
I've got a sunset in my veins
And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay
[Repeat: x2]
The best part of "believe" is the "lie,"
I hope you sing along and you steal a line
I need to keep you like this in my mind
So give in or just give up
Are we growing up or just going down
[Chorus]

It's just a matter of time until we're all found out._]the catchy line of the song.
Take our tears put them on ice,
Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light"
Is part of the "story" of the song.
I think this means "Are we changing for good reasons or we're just getting worse. Even if we pretend we'll still get caught anyway. Stop crying cause I'm willing to sacrifice everything for your good."
To be continued.....
Pumping through your speakers
Delivering just what you need
We're the chemists
Who've found the formula
To make your heart swell and burst"
I'm not exactly sure what this means, but it is just how I feel about their music. "To make your heart swell and burst."
I love this song.
Sorry, no interpretations.
Im absolutly in love with the line "I swear I'd burn this city down, To show you the light'
Brilliant song.
(:
sophmore slump. or comback of the year (aka) from under the cork tree
not sure what it's about though...
'are we growing up or just growing down its just a matter of time untill were all found out take our tears, put em on ice cos i swear id burn this city down to show you the light'
i think this means that theyre unsure about themselves and they want to show us something the 'light'
'We're the therapists pumping through your speakers
Delivering just what you need
We're well read and poised
We're the best boys
We're the chemists who've found the formula
To make your heart swell and burst
No matter what they say, don't believe a word
Cause I'll keep singing this lie if you'll keep believing it'
in this part i think that they are mocking what all their fans feel about them and what everyone says about them but they dont want you to believe all that they just want 2 be known as a band who really enjoy what theyredoing
We're traveled like gypsies
Only with worse luck and far less gold
We're the kids you used to love
But then we grew old
We're the lifers here til the bitter end
Condemned from the start
Ashamed of the way
The songs and the words own the beating of our hearts
In this part i think that their ashamed of the way they think of their music and lyrics and how it owns the beating of their hearts... and it says that theyre there till the bitter end and theyve struggled on the way to get here and are wondering if its all worth it,
Are we growing up or just going down
It’s just a matter of time until we’re all found out
take our tears and put them on ice
I’d burn this city down to show you the light
There’s a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up
And another around to help us bend your trust
I’ve got a sunset in my veins
And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay
in this bit im not sure what they are saying but they keep refering to drugs and pills so maybe they are being driven towards them by presssure or something.. =S
The best part of "Believe" is the "Lie,"
I hope you sing along and you steal a line
I need to keep you like this in my mind
So give in or just give up
In this bit i think their referring to 'our lawyer made us change the name of this song so we wouldnt get sued' and their saying that if we belive in them were believing in a lie and we need to give in to it or give up on it... wow this comment is long and i bet ive got the complete wrong end of the stick or something, i havent read all the comments before this so if ive contradicted something or stolen someobdys theory then i sorry... p.s. I do LIKE this song
