I Believe In Something

Swimming beneath the continents
 Swirling through the sky
 Is everything I don't know yet
 Still won't when I die
 For I am just a little thing
 Astounded by everything
 The wet grass beneath my feet
 The tall towers of concrete
 If I was God no one would doubt it
 You wouldn't need church to get the mystery
 That we once knew
 Is something we'd forget
 I believe
 I'm a totally modern boy (Turn out the lights)
 I believe in something
 Don't wanna be
 Some evil giant's toy (When it's late at night)
 I believe in something
 My friend had his death foretold
 When he was twenty-six years old
 I say the right things, they're no help
 His body slowly eats itself
 If I was God no one would doubt it
 No one would suspect
 That there was nothing that I couldn't do
 I believe in these tiny little pills (Turn out the lights)
 I believe in something
 Mystic words on the back of dollar bills (When it's late at night)
 I believe in something
 I'm swimming beneath the continents
 Swirling through the air
 Can't see the bones beneath my skin
 But I knew that they're there
 I believe that my little heart's diseased (Turn out the lights)
 I believe in something
 I like to think there are people just like me (When it's late at night)
 I believe in something
 I believe what they taught me in grade school (Turn out the lights)
 History is made my handsome fools (When it's late at night)
 I believe everything on television
 Twelve step programs are the new religion
 Gideon bibles made with rolling paper
 The just prevail sooner or later
 I believe I will live forever
 I believe it all
 I'll swear to whatever
 I believe in something
