Hope

(Verse I)
On the ledge
On the edge
On the edge of self expression

Can someone
Give me hope
Well atleast teach me a lesson

Give me hope
All I need
Just to push a little harder
Give me hope
Give me strength
Just to go a little farther

(Chorus)
Give me Hope...

(Verse II)
Give me hope
God knows
Yeah he knows
That I need it

Spare some hope
Yeah some hope
Or else I am doomed to repeat it

(Chorus)
Give me Hope
Give me Hope
Give me Hope...

(Bridge)
Yeah I said I'm off the ledge of self expression
But I can't get us off the ledge of self control
Maybe you could teach us, teach me a lesson
Cause we're the ones that need to learn, hope can play any role

(Break)
Under this streetlight, no streetcar named desire
Runnin' out of hope, my band is on fire
If I fall in the woods, and no one's there to see it
Will that really mean, that people won't believe it?

A boy discovers hope and lived happy ever after...
Spared from disaster...
Happy ever after...



(Outro)
Yeah I said I'm on a ledge - Of self destruction
Yeah no production, away for construction
Hope comes back - but fades, it's frightened
You make it frightened, you're life is frightening (yeah so frightenin')

The only chance a hope, a prayer wish
I place in earnest
Cause I hate honest - yeah hope is honest

The only chance a hope, a prayer wish
I place in earnest
Cause I hate honest - yeah hope is honest

Yeah I said I'm on a ledge - Of self destruction
Yeah no production, away for construction
Hope comes back - but fades, it's frightened
You make it frightened, you're life is frightening (oh yeah so frightenin')

The only chance a hope, a prayer wish
I place in earnest
Cause I hate honest - yeah hope is honest
