Matthew Pickup & the Movement

 Through the Asteroids (Pickup)

You’ve been searching for something to believe in, to believe in here
I’ll give you something to believe in, you can believe in me

Stalled on the launching pad and you can’t get liftoff,
Never mind that your rocket ship’s an old cardboard box; Oh no.
You’d still have a better chance careening through the asteroids,
When you can close your eyes and believe

You rule from above with your castle of gold,
Now never mind that your throne is the porcelain kind; Oh no.
You’d still have a better chance commanding the clouds,
When you can close your eyes and believe

You swim in the riches that are scattered around you
Never mind that the bank in your board game’s now broke; Oh no.
You’d have a much better chance to buy your own tropical island
When you can close your eyes and believe
