Anthem Lyrics - The Guest - Phantom Planet

I woke up today a song was swimming in my head 

And I hummed it to myself as I got out of bed 

And on the way to take a shower it all just dawned on me 

That a song like this just might go down in history 

I quickly ran back 

To get my guitar 

A pen and some paper 

'Cause this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm trying to put the words where they belong 

Yeah, this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm hoping everyone will sing along 

Well I quickly got to work and put the song in gear 

And my neighbor rang the doorbell said it caught his ear 

I was playing it so loud the whole neighborhood could hear 

And at night from every household it became quite clear 

Everyone just singing along 

The same notes the same song 

Or maybe I heard it wrong 

'Cause this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm trying to put the words where they belong 

Yeah, this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm hoping everyone will sing along 

Everyone was singing along 

The same notes the same song 

Or maybe I heard that wrong 

'Cause this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm trying to put the words where they belong 

Yeah, this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm hoping everyone will sing along 

Yeah, this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm trying to put the words where they belong 

Yeah, this whole world needs an anthem 

And I'm hoping everyone will sing along
