Somethin' to believe in

All my life I've been lost
Always burned every bridge that I crossed
Heart of stone, will of steel
I built a wall so I wouldn't feel
I walk alone, but alone the night's so cold
The street's are mean without a dream to call your own

Oh, gimme somethin' to believe in
Oh, gimme somethin' I can touch
All my life I've been searchin' for a reason to care
For a reason to trust
Somethin' to believe in

Angels sin, heroes fall
Friends'll lie when their back's to the wall
Years of tears make you tough
I learned to fight, never learned how to love
It's gonna take an act of faith, I know
To break these chains of doubt around my soul

Oh, gimme somethin' to believe in
Oh, gimme somethin' I can touch
All my life I've been searchin' for a reason to care
For a reason to trust
Somethin' to believe in

I've been running and I feel so far from home
But something tells me there ain't so far to go

Oh, gimme somethin' to believe in
Oh, gimme somethin' I can touch
All my life I've been searchin' for a reason to care
For a reason to trust
Oh, I've had nothing to hold on to
Oh, and it took so long to see
I'll be strong when there's something to believe in
Somethin' to believe in me
