[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, oh

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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Outro]

Oh

Mmm

Oh

Woo
