And I've collected all these thoughts
And I'm dying just to lose them
And if Your words are true or not
I'll die trying to prove them
But I'll just have to accept
That my mind is so inept
And that the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you
Convince me because I really need your help
Convince me, because I can't see this former self
I'll put the emphasis on the evidence,
Begging for the proof
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
This is so unnerving, I know you've never lied to me before
But the things you're telling me, I can't yet believe, yet can't ignore
But I'll just have to accept
That my mind is so inept
And that the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you
I'll put the emphasis on the evidence,
Begging for the proof
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
So to place our lives into Your hands
Confide in what you do
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
Its the world full of cynics
You say to stay alive in it,
You've got to stick with what you know
But the soul is always aching
For the heart to start taking,
A chance by letting go(So let go(let go))
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
So to place our lives into Your hands
Confide in what you do
Sometimes when you're trying to sleep
When all your doubts and your faith don't agree
It's cause
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
And I'm dying just to lose them
And if Your words are true or not
I'll die trying to prove them
But I'll just have to accept
That my mind is so inept
And that the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you
Convince me because I really need your help
Convince me, because I can't see this former self
I'll put the emphasis on the evidence,
Begging for the proof
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
This is so unnerving, I know you've never lied to me before
But the things you're telling me, I can't yet believe, yet can't ignore
But I'll just have to accept
That my mind is so inept
And that the only thing that's left
For me to do is to trust you
I'll put the emphasis on the evidence,
Begging for the proof
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
So to place our lives into Your hands
Confide in what you do
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
Its the world full of cynics
You say to stay alive in it,
You've got to stick with what you know
But the soul is always aching
For the heart to start taking,
A chance by letting go(So let go(let go))
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
So to place our lives into Your hands
Confide in what you do
Sometimes when you're trying to sleep
When all your doubts and your faith don't agree
It's cause
Sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth

Anyway, I think this song is absolutely amazing. It shows Matts vulnerability, it shows that no one is perfect- people do have doubts at one point or another.
Sometimes when you're trying to sleep
and all your doubts and your faith dont agree
It's cause sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
my jaw droped. How did Matt know that I do that? It was like he was singing that song for me. I know that God exists but sometimes it's hard to believe, and God knows that. Thats why he makes amazing bands like Relient K--to quiet our secret doubts.
I really feel sorry for Relient K, though. Who do they listen to?
this song is perfect for the agnostic/questioning christian...when i first accepted jesus i was afraid of 'letting go' of my agnostic ways and just believing. okay enough rambling
It talks about how sometimes it is hard to believe in God, and to trust him, because so many people have reasons for Him not to exist, but how that we just have to trust him, because he has never lied to us before..
It relates to alot thats going on in my life right now.. with my house catching fire, and burning to the ground.. it is hard not to find song lyrics that dont relate to how you feel at times, but I know God will take care of me and my family, and that I can trust him, because he has never let me stray too far:-)
I think these lyrics are slightly wrong- the words aren't "a world full of sinners" but "a world full of cynics" instead.
I'm pretty sure the song is about putting your faith in God, and how it's sometimes hard to believe in Him when you don't have any hardcore proof. I feel this way and am so relieved Relient K released a song about it.
"I'll put the emphasis on the evidence"- I love the way Matt sings this part. Believing in the little things that prove His existence- the small miracles- and the large ones, too- just to contradict your doubt because you know it's the right thing to believe. And yet, you feel as if you HAVE to believe for fear of going to Hell, but you WANT to believe as well, because you love God.
Okay, so I think I'll shut up now. I talk too much. But this is DEFINITELY my new favorite song.
