Believe by The Bravery Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The faces all around me, they don't smile, they just crack
Waiting for our ship to come, but our ship's not coming back
We do our time like pennies in a jar
What are we saving for? What are we saving for?

[Verse 2]
There's a smell of stale fear that's reeking from our skins
The drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
We sit and grow our roots into the floor
But what are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?

[Chorus]
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

[Verse 3]
Something's always coming, you can hear it in the ground
It swells into the air
With the rising, rising sound
And never comes, but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
What are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?
[Chorus]
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

[Bridge]
I am hiding from some beast
But the beast was always here
Watching without eyes
Because the beast is just my fear
That I am just nothing
Now it's just what I've become
What am I waiting for?
It's already done, oh

[Chorus]
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

[Outro]
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
