  • Sometimes I'm beaten
    Sometimes I'm broken
    '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

    Tell me how to be in this world
    Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
    Tell me how could I believe in something
    I believe in us

    After the wreckage
    After the dust
    I still hear the howling, I still feel the rush
    Over the riots
    Above all the noise
    Through all the worry, I still hear your voice

    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
    Tell me when the light goes out
    That even in the dark we will find a way out
    Tell me now 'cause I believe in something
    I believe in us

    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

    So tell me how to be in this world
    Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
    Tell me now 'cause I believe in something
    I believe in us
    Tell me when the light goes out
    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
    I believe in us

    I believe in something
    I believe in us Writer/s: James Michael Bay, Jonathan Ian Green
