|
Hopelessness in the alley, alone, draggin' his feet |
|
He wasn't born that way but life has just taught him defeat |
|
So he waits to teach you distrust from his cold home in the streets |
|
And hope is all that you can do |
|
Hopelessness is on the |
|
TV, infecting sea to shining sea |
|
In the worried eyes of our parents, try as we might not to believe |
|
And we tried pill and prescriptions but drugs won't cure this disease |
|
Hope is all that we can do |
|
This is the new year, nobody knows |
|
Where we are going, what's down the road |
|
The city is humming, the country is cold |
|
But you give me something, something like hope |
|
We grew up without parents to teach us wrong from right |
|
So we turned towards many heroes but still we couldn't sleep at night |
|
So we searched and read and listened to the songs old prophets sang |
|
Let's all get together friends and dance away the rain |
|
It's time to get together friends and dance away the rain |
|
This is the new year, nobody knows |
|
Where we are going, what's down the road |
|
The city is humming, the country is cold |
|
But you give me something, something like hope |
