Swimming neath the continents
Swirling through the sky
Is everything I dont know yet
And still wont when I die
For I am just a little thing
Astounded by everything
The wet grass beneath my feet
The tall towers of concrete
If I was God, no one would doubt it
We wouldnt need church to get
The mystery that we once knew
The something we forget
I believe Im a totally modern boy
But turn out the light, and I believe in something
Dont anna be some evil giants toy
When its late at night, I believe in something
My friend had his death foretold
When he was twenty-six years old
I say the right things theyre no help
His body slowly eats itself
If I was God, no one would doubt it
No one would suspect
That there was nothing I could do
With my greater intellect
I believe in these tiny little pills I believe in something
Mystic words on the backs of dollar bills I believe in something
Im swimming neath the continents
Im swirling through the air
Cant see the bones beneath my skin
But I know that theyre there
I believe that my little hearts diseased I believe in something
Id like to think there are people just like me I believe in something
I believe what they taught me in grade school
History is made by handsome dudes
I believe everything on television
Twelve step programs are the new religion
Gideon bibles make good rolling papers
The just prevail sooner or later
I believe I will live forever
I believe it all
I swear to whatever
