Something to believe in
Little brother's got a habitThat he thinks he's getting under controlAnd he's selling all our love and best wishes as the hunger growsLiving by the scriptures on the subway wall,He wants to be a rebel but he can't find a cause ...
[Chorus:]He needs something to believe inHe needs something to believe inAll he ever wanted was to get away
Little sister's getting serious with a fella nearly twice her ageAnd she's aiming to move in with himAs soon as they can find a placeBut there's no getting through to her, there's no other wayYou can't learn from mistakes that somebody else made ...
(Chorus)
Caught in the void of no hope and no choiceit's a nobody wins situationWhat can they do? - it's a catch 22It's a breakdown in communication
Little wonder they're confused no wonder we misunderstandLittle wonder there's a wind of change blowing through the land,Nobody's guilty ... it's a sign of the timesBut we won't see the future 'til we open our eyes
We need something to believe in(Something to Believe In)We need something to believe in(Something to Believe In)We need something to Believe In(Something to Believe In)We need something to believe inAll we ever wanted was to get away
