Verse 1
Human being deceives himself if he believes it
Views that he holds grow from evidence collected
Cherry pick punnets of facts so they all fit
Ignore those that contradict cherished point of view

Verse 2
Everyone want understanding believable
What one finds believable varies a lot
Person A has faith in one thing, has no doubt
Person B may find ridiculous the same thing

Instrumental

Verse 3
Everyone want explanation reasonable
Who determines what appeals – admit I don’t know
One thing sure is what we believe sets the stage
Upon which we then play out life adventure

Outro
The believable
Maybe by design
The believable
Need not be the truth
