Upbeat song "seeing is believing" needs ID


DAVID in NJ

Recommended Posts

Hi... There is this newer song my roomate keeps asking me about. He's not sure of the exact lyrics but he says one line he hears alot is.

Seeing,is believing.

And also, something about Lying and Denying.

He claims it sounds like a white guy.

I know there's not much to go on here, but any guesses?

thanks in advance

Reel Big Fish

"The Jokes On Me"

The old days were no fun

Im not sorry that they're gone

I don't miss them and I won't miss them

and it was always wrong

Everything I've ever done

From the beginning and to the ending

and things never got better, it seems like forever

Since we had fun or maybe I never have fun

And this whole time! I've been around

One minute up!

and a hundred down uhhh ohhh

Keep on laughing, Keep attacking

I'll show you what it means

To keep on lying, Keep denying

That there's nothing good in me

I'm not worthless, I know you heard this

My life's a joke and the joke's on me

The joke's on me

You were always lame, a headache and a pain

I don't miss you and I won't miss you

I tried not to get bitter but I was such a quitter

Oh yeah I had dreams but they were only ever bad dreams

And this whole time! I've been around

One minute up!

and a hundred down uhhh ohhh

Keep on laughing, Keep attacking

I'll show you what it means

To keep on lying, Keep denying

That there's nothing good in me

I'm not worthless, I know you heard this

My life's a joke and the joke's on me

The joke's on me, The joke's on me...

Well there never were any good old days

Looking back I'm still amazed

How everything went wrong in every way

There were no good old days

Well there never were any good old days

Looking back I'm still amazed

That everything went wrong in every way

There were no good old days

[2x]

And this whole time! I've been around

One minute up!

and a hundred down uhhh ohhh

Keep on laughing, Keep attacking

I'll show you what it means

To keep on lying, Keep denying

That there's nothing good in me

I'm not worthless, I know you heard this

My life's a joke and the joke's on me...

Three Days Grace

Gone Forever

Don't know what's going on

Don't know what went wrong

Feels like a hundred years I

Still can't believe you're gone

So I'll stay up all night

With these bloodshot eyes

While these walls surround me with the story of our life

I feel so much better

Now that you're gone forever

I tell myself that I don't miss you at all

I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now

That you're gone forever

Now things are coming clear

And I don't need you here

And in this world around me

I'm glad you disappeared

So I'll stay out all night

Get drunk and f***ing fight

Until the morning comes I'll

Forget about our life

I feel so much better

Now that you're gone forever

I tell myself that I don't miss you at all

I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now

That you're gone forever

First time you screamed at me

I should have made you leave

I should have known it could be so much better

I hope you're missing me

I hope I've made you see

That I'm gone forever

And now it's coming clear

That I don't need you here

And in this world around me

I'm glad you disappeared

I feel so much better

Now that you're gone forever

I tell myself that I don't miss you at all

I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now

That you're gone forever

And now you're gone forever

And now you're gone forever

Thanks guys... According to my roomate, the song is played all the time here in the United States on Top 40 radio stations. he says the song is UPBEAT.

The only thing about the two songs listed above is that I don't see the words SEEING IS BELIEVING listed and he is fairly sure that is the most prominent lyrical feature.

I do know that the song is currently fairly hot and is receiving quite a bit of airplay here in the states.

Thanks

How about this one:

Seeing is Believing -- Scratch Massive

Shift in the sky ?

Do you, do you really think that the sun sets

When it used to be so high ?

Haven't you ever passed in the street

An old love that looked like a stranger ?

Haven't you ever seen a whole bottle emptied

In a hour ?

How fast things changes

Seeing is believing

Seeing is believing

Seeing is believing

The world will never look quite the same again

Have you, have you ever tried to smach

Your changing body in the mirror ?

Have you, have you ever scratched dead people's face

On old photographs ?

Have you, have you ever walked through dried corn fields

Skulls and ruins ?

So why, so why should I believe in your future plans ?

How fast things changes

Seeing is believing

Oh, seeing is believing

Oh, oh, oh, oh, seeing is believing

No, no the world will never look quite the same again

The world will never look

The world will never look quite the same again

The world will never look quite the same again

The world will never look quite the same again

The world will never look quite the same again

edit: or maybe not. no lying or denying

David, here's an idea for you. If the song has been getting a lot of airplay, why don't you try calling the radio station, and talking to the disc jockey (some can be really helpful, sometimes they aren't). Also, check the stations' playlist, and see if anything there hits you.

A thought.... ;)
