Tears for Fears, named after a phrase found in Arthur Janov's book Prisoners of Pain, is a British pop/rock outfit formed in 1981 in Bath, England. Founder members Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith had been friends since their early teens and had already been in the shortlived ska band Graduate. Initially associated with the new wave and synthesiser bands of the early 1980s, Tears For Fears' earlier work, as evidenced on their 1983 debut album The Hurting , was explicitly based around the emotional angst of adolescence.

TEARS FOR FEARS: "I BELIEVE" (Roland Orzabal) from the album Songs From the Big Chair
FMaj7Ab I Believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone Gm7EbMaj7Gm We will be strong, oh yes we will be strong FMaj7Ab And I believe that if I'm crying while I write these words Gm7EbMaj7Gm Is it absurd or am I being real? FMaj7Ab I believe that if you knew just what these tears were for Gm7EbMaj7 They would just pour like every drop of rain Gm/CAb/DAbMaj7Ab (Intro) That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe
Verse Two: ---------------- I believe that if you thought for a moment, took your time You would not resign yourself, resign yourself to your fate And I believe that if it's written in the stars, that's fine I can't deny that I'm a Virgo too I believe that if you're bristling while you hear this song I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve? That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe
Verse Three: ------------------ I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness, In the nighttime, in the storm, In the casino Casino Spanish eyes I believe, no I can't believe that every time you hear a newborn scream You just can't see the shaping of a life The shaping of a life
