One Last Thing

Chalked up in a city street
Broke glass and a bloody scene
Young guns that are half my age
Baghdad up to Monterey
Cellphones in the magazines
Deathbombs and with human beings
Hate, war, and diamond rings
Nightmares of silly things
How does anybody sleep at night?
Out of mind but not out of sight
Outta love and I've just begun
Living large in America

But I found one last thing to believe in
But I found one last thing to believe in

Close calls and we're holding on
Police lines and fire alarms
High winds with a heavy fall
Dead birds in a parking stall
How does anyone sleep at night?
I lay in bed and I close my eyes
I kinda rest but it starts to hurt
Living here is a lot of work

But I found one last thing to believe in
But I found one last thing to believe in

But I found one last thing to believe in
But I found one last thing to believe in

But I found

(Why are do we struggle to breathe a more righteous breath?)
(A feeling of heartfelt purpose?)

But I found

(That sense of hope)

One last thing

(For something bigger than ourselves.)

But I found one last thing to believe in (to believe in)
But I found one last thing to believe in (to believe in)

But I found one last thing to believe in (to believe in)
But I found one last thing to believe in (to believe in)

To believe in
