Albums > Faith & Superstition > Lyrics >
Track 8. Fingernails

A song about how faith feels for me; quite the opposite of having it all worked out. If you know all the answers, there is not need to believe at all.

I
I believe
I believe that I
I have my finger
I have my fingernails
Upon a ledge
Ledge on a mountain
Mountain that stands
At the end of everything

You can call it wishful thinking
You can call it optimism
You can say it’s just confusion
Say I suffer from delusion
But also
On the other hand
You can call it
Faith

I
I believe
I believe that I
I have seen
I have seen the light
The light that shines
Underneath
Underneath the door
At the end of everything

I
I believe
I believe that I
Believe I know
Believe I know someone
Someone who knows
More than I know
Know about the end
The end of everything
