Sometimes I'm beaten
Sometimes I'm broke
‘Cause sometimes this city is nothing but smoke
Is there a secret?
Is there a code?
Can we make it better?
'Cause I'm losing hope
[Chorus]
Tell me how to be in this world
Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
Tell me how 'cause I believe in something
I believe in us
[Verse 2]
After the wreckage
After the dust
I still hear the howling, I still feel the rush
Over the riots, above all the noise
Through all the worry, I still hear your voice
[Chorus]
So, tell me how to be in this world
Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
Tell me how ‘cause I believe in something
I believe in us
Tell me when the light goes down
That even in the dark we will find a way out
Tell me now 'cause I believe in something
I believe in us
[Bridge]
We used to be kids living just for kicks
In cinema seats, learning how to kiss
Running through streets that were painted gold
We never believed we'd grow up like this
[Chorus]
So tell me how to be in this world
Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
Tell me how 'cause I believe in something
I believe in us
Tell me when the light goes down
That even in the dark we can find a way out
Tell me now 'cause I believe in something
I believe in us
I believe in something
And I believe in us
[Verse 1] Sometimes I'm beaten Sometimes I'm broke ‘Cause sometimes this city is nothing but smoke Is there a secret? Is there a code? Can we make it better? 'Cause I'm losing hope [Chorus] Tell me how to be in this world Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt Tell me how 'cause I believe in something I believe in us [Verse 2] After the wreckage After the dust I still hear the howling, I still feel the rush Over the riots, above all the noise Through all the worry, I still hear your voice [Chorus] So, tell me how to be in this world Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt Tell me how ‘cause I believe in something I believe in us Tell me when the light goes down That even in the dark we will find a way out Tell me now 'cause I believe in something I believe in us [Bridge] We used to be kids living just for kicks In cinema seats, learning how to kiss Running through streets that were painted gold We never believed we'd grow up like this [Chorus] So tell me how to be in this world Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt Tell me how 'cause I believe in something I believe in us Tell me when the light goes down That even in the dark we can find a way out Tell me now 'cause I believe in something I believe in us I believe in something And I believe in us Explain Request ×
