Harder To Believe Than Not To

Harder To Believe Than Not To (Now The Truth Can Be Told Album Version) - Steve Taylor

Nothing is colder than the winds of change

Where the chill numbs the

Dreamer till a shadow remains

Among the ruins lies your tortured soul

Was it lost there

Or did your will surrender control

Shivering with doubts that

Were left unattended

So you toss away the cloak

That you should have mended

Don't you know by now why the chosen are few

It's harder to believe than not to

Harder to believe than not to

It was a confidence that got you by

When you know you believed it

But you didn't know why

No one imagines it will come to this

But it gets so hard

When people don't want to listen

Shivering with doubts that you left unattended

So you toss away the cloak

That you should have mended

Don't you know by now why the chosen are few

It's harder to believe than not to

It's harder to believe than not to

Some stay paralyzed until they succumb

Others do what they feel but their senses are numb

Some get trampled by the pious throng

Still they limp along

Are you sturdy enough to move to the front

Is it nods of approval or the truth that you want

And if they call it a crutch then you walk with pride

Your accusers have always been afraid to go outside

They shiver with doubts that were left unattended

Then they toss away the cloak

That they should have mended

You know by now why the chosen are few

It's harder to believe than not to

I believe
