| Well I lay underneath an ageless sky
|
| I watched the universe breathing
|
| There’s more going on up there than meets the eye
|
| Give me something to believe in
|
| Which way’s in and which way’s out
|
| Every step is misleading
|
| Well which way is up which way is down
|
| You gotta have something to believe in
|
| Oh, let me dream, let me dream
|
| I spend my whole life dreaming
|
| I’ve been lucky but I’m still mean
|
| You gotta have something to believe in
|
| I didn’t mean to hurt the people I hurt
|
| I was full of fear and loathing
|
| I wasn’t up to much, but I was all I had to go on
|
| Couldn’t find nothing to believe in
|
| I don’t like all them man-made religions
|
| They all need a little spiritual healing
|
| They don’t cut across race, they don’t cut across culture
|
| But we all need something to believe in
|
| So you believe what you want to believe
|
| Just stay true to your feelings
|
| 'Cause one man’s god’s just as good as another now
|
| Gotta have something to believe in
|
| Well I lay underneath a royal throne
|
| The gaudy paint was peeling
|
| Half an inch deep and twice as cheap
|
| Oh give me something to believe in
|
| Fat Fred always packing lead
|
| On the corner dealing
|
| Makes more in a night than I can make in forty days
|
| Give me something to believe in
|
| Now people worship what they see
|
| Looks can be deceiving
|
| Violence rages in abandoned hearts
|
| 'Cause they ain’t got nothing to believe in
|
| The chill chill is a bitter pill
|
| When it comes to leaving
|
| 'Cause there ain’t no easy way outta here
|
| When you ain’t got nothing to believe in
|
| Just woke up in Sarajevo city
|
| I watched all those mothers screaming
|
| Kids getting shot and for what, and for what?
|
| Give me something to believe in
|
| Now there’s fire outside, mud that slides
|
| Earthquakes shake the region
|
| Willy and the Poorboys lost in America
|
| They ain’t got nothing to believe in
|
| For every seed of knowledge found
|
| For every grain of reason
|
| For every shred of decency
|
| There’s something to believe in
|
| Now I lay me down to rest
|
| In the silence of the evening
|
| And the moon road shines from here to eternity
|
| I’ve got something to believe in
|
| You believe what you want to believe
|
| Just stay true to your feelings
|
| 'Cause one man’s god’s just as good as another
|
| I’ve got something to believe in |
