It's just my
word
Against all you know and everything you've heard
Against the absolute, the abstract and absurd
It's just my truth against the lie
My hello against the good-bye
You think that you deserve
It's just my word
It's just my love
Against the devil down below and god above
Against the heaven and the hell you're so sure of
Just my forgiveness for your sin
My warmth against your skin
Just my flesh and blood
It's just my love
Just this small and simple thing
Can change everything
But why believe
When your whole life is telling you to leave
When you're sure I must have something up my sleeve
When you know everything must pass
And someday you might end up alone
The last to leave
Oh, why believe?
Because this small and simple thing
Changes everything
It's just my truth against the lie
My hello against the good-bye
You think that you deserve
It's just my word.
