How could we ever
Come to this you say
Our lives do not matter
And justice has no face
To study war and anger
Burns the fabric of our state
Sends a message to our neighbors
That we've fallen from the fray
It's a long road to walk on
And I don't know where it ends
But I hope
And when I'm too tired to carry on
I don't know if you'll be there
But I hope
Dream on dreamers
When the promises fade
It can only leave room
For the great
And when you long for a hero
No need to look around
You will be one and the same
I said, fight on brothers
Oh, tell me you understand
It's a power that's placed in your hands, yeah, yeah
And march on sisters
You're never alone
Lift us up and carry us home
'Cause it's a long road to walk on (long road)
And I don't know where it ends
But I hope
And when I'm too tired to carry on (too tired)
I don't know if you'll be there
But I hope
If you should stray (if you should stray)
Or give up someday (give up someday)
I'll fight for you
And if I should fall (if I should fall)
And not make it at all
Will you go on
Still standing strong
It's a long road to walk on (long road)
And I don't know if it ends
But I hope
And when I'm too tired to carry on (too tired)
I don't know if you'll be there
I hope
We've come too far (too far)
To turn around
And we won't back down
I hope
And you might say
We'll never, never see the end
Well I don't know my friend
I hope

I hope
For you
For me
