[Verse 1]
For those of you who pray to open air
And those of you who know that there's really nothin’ there
Well, let's keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
Let's keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
[Refrain]
Something, something to believe!
Something to, something to believe!
[Verse 2]
So let’s place a human face upon the sky
Who sees us stumble far below and knows the reason why
So let's keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
Let's a-keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
[Hook]
(Something, something to believe!) Something to believe
(Something to) Something to (Something to believe!)
[Refrain]
(There'll be good luck tomorrow with God on our side
An end to our sorrows with little white lies)
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
So chant your mantras and clutch your old wooden cross
To stay the waves upon which we all get tossed
So let's keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
Well, let's keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
[Hook]
Something, something to believe! Ooh, yeah we do
Something to, something to believe!
[Refrain]
(There'll be good luck tomorrow with God on our side
An end to our sorrows with little white lies)
[Hook]
(Something, something to believe!
Something, something to believe!
Something, something to believe!
Something, something to believe!)
[Outro]
I know the joke is on me but eventually I need a reason to believe
I know the joke is on me but eventually I need a reason to believe
So let's keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
Well, let’s keep ourselves deceived, we need something to believe
