beloved

Maybe all the world is insecure
Maybe all of us are looking for a cure
Maybe, something that can finally reassure, maybe

We're chansing after money like a drug
But the money's never gonna be enough
No, it's never gona take the place of love, maybe

I'm still looking for the truth
But I can't seem to find it in the news
When it all starts singing like the blues, maybe

The days start feeling like the nights
Like it's just another way to lose a fight
Like I'm the only one who's looking for the light, maybe

If only I could open up my eyes
Would the truth be what would set me free?
If only I could open up my eyes
Would I see that maybe I need you like, you need me?

And the new year dawns
And the old year's drifting on and on
Like my doubts in orbit around the sun

Every day begins to feel the same
Like I'm waiting on the wind to go and change
But there's no one but myself around to blame, lately

Staring and despairing on the screen
Turning everything that's real into a meme
But the feeds that I read don't feed me what I need

If only I could open up my eyes
Would the truth be what would set me free?
If only I could open up my eyes
Would I see that maybe I need you, like you need me?

And the new year dawns
And the old year's drifting on and on
Like my doubts in orbit around the sun

And I still don't think I'm wrong
To be so earnest in these broken, longing songs
Like my doubts in orbit around the sun
Around the sun
Around the sun
Around the sun

The questions that we're too afraid to ask
'Cause the present is the future of the past
'Cause the river is the same but moving fast, lately

Maybe every "other" is a "we" maybe
Differences are easier to see
Than the family we are that's underneath, maybe
Like you need me?

And the new year dawns
And the old year's drifting on an on
Like my doubts in orbit around the sun

And I'm looking in your eyes
I see reflections of the sea reflecting the skies

I see myself
Looking at you
Looking at me
Looking at

I see myself
Looking at you
Looking at me

I start to recognize that I need you
I start to recognize that I need you
Like you need me
Like I need you
Like you need me
