Something to Believe In

By Young the Giant (2016)
On album Home of the Strange (2016)

Home of the Strange
It gets old when you talk to the sun
In a tongue understood by no one
Can it be that I hear what he's saying?
Is there a reason why I'm still awake?

And he says, "I've got you written
In a black book by the railroad track
You see, I know your fate"
And I say, "you've got to listen
I'm a songbird with a brand new track
You underestimate"

I'll give you something to believe in
Burn up the basement full of demons
Realize you're a slave to your mind, break free
Now give me something to believe in
Just give me
Just give me something to believe in

Everyday when I speak to the moon
Pale as a ghost in the afternoon
Tragedy has a hold of my mind
But I can see the lie between the lines

And I say, you've got to listen
I'm a songbird with a brand new track
You underestimate

I'll give you something to believe in
Burn up a basement full of demons
Realize you're a slave to your mind, break free
Now give me something to believe in

Promise me
See, I'm afraid
I'm a slave to my mind
You give me something to believe in

"I've got you written
In a black book by the railroad track
You see, I know your fate"
And I say, "you've got to listen
I'm a songbird with a brand new track
You underestimate"

I'll give you something to believe in
Burn up the basement full of demons
Realize you're a slave to your mind, break free
Just give me something to believe in
Just give me
Just give me something to believe in
