A Hope For Tomorrow
It is in this unfortunate time
Where man has no feeling and
Death has no meaning that
We find ourselves lost and alone
We run headlong into darkness
Hiding from ourselves and what
We perceive, old lies and old lives
For our many sins we must atone
Around in circles we go, in our
Minds and in our lives, all in a day, all in a year
Never really going anywhere
The purpose not at all clear
As we look towards the light, waiting for some answer
Wondering if faith or chance will triumph
All the while in the back of our minds
Who will deliver us from fear
One day in the future, it will come without warning
Out of the clear blue sky, the answer we seek
Will resonate on the wind, giving hope and purpose
To a people in need
From a time where madness used to reign
A new day is borne, out of necessity
And with that day will come peace and understanding
So that we no longer have to bleed
