Something to Believe In (Alternate/Acoustic) [2003 - Remaster]
Well I see him on the TV Preaching about the promised lands he tells me believe in Jesus steals the money from my hands some say he was a good man Lord I think he sinned... yeah
Twenty two years of mental tears cries a suicidal Vietnam vet Who fought a losing war on a foreign shore to find his country didn't want him back their bullets took his best friend in Saigon our lawyers took his wife and kids no regrets In a time I don't remember in a war he can't forget he cried 'forgive me for what I done there Cause I never meant the things I did'
and give me something to believe in if there's a lord above and give me something to believe in oh, lord arise
My best friend died a lonely man in some Palm Springs hotel room I got the call last Christmas Eve and they told me the news I tried all night not to break down n cry as the tears rolled down my face I felt so cold and empty like a lost soul out of place and the Mirror mirror on the wall sees my smile it fades again
and give me something to believe in (I give me something to believe in) if there's lord above and give me something to believe in (I give me something to believe in) Oh, lord arise Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now things I didn't know then, Road you gotta take me home
Solo
I drive by the homeless sleepin' on a cold dark street like bodies in an old bone grave underneath the broken old neon sign used to read 'Jesus saves' A mile away live the rich folk and I see how they're livin' it up but while the poor they eat from hand to mouth the rich are drinkin' from a golden cup and it just makes me wonder why so many lose and so few win... Ha!
Give me something to believe in give me something to believe in If there's a lord above give me something to believe in oh lord arise give me something to believe in you take the high road give me something to believe in and I'll take the low road give me something to believe in you take the high road and give me something to believe in and I'll take the low road
Yeah, sometimes I wish I didn't know now things I didn't know then... yeah.
and give me something to believe in
