Keep Hope Alive

by Violet WolfChild


Come with me now, dear people
To visit a world in distress.
The depth of its sorrow troubles me.
Can you dear people,
Can you picture it?

Seeing it shouldn't be hard,
This world filled with violence and gloom.
Don't turn away from all of their voices.
Don't choose defeat,
Unless defeat is all we can do.

How can we just turn away from,
Hearts that are turning to stone? (to stone)
Couldn't we try understanding,
Try healing a world that's gone cold? 
Try to accept one another.
By setting aside all our pride. (our pride)
Why not try standing together?
Tell me can you help me,
Keep hope alive?

We have a chance to change it,
Now is the time to decide
I think it's time that we all stand up.
It's time to fight back.
It's time for us to rise

How can we just turn away from?
Hearts that are turning to stone? (to stone)
Couldn't we try understanding,
Try healing a world that's gone cold? 
Try to accept one another.
By setting aside all our pride. (our pride)
Why not try standing together?
Tell me can you help me
Keep hope alive?

How can we just turn away from?
Hearts that are turning to stone? (Hearts that are stone)
Couldn't we try understanding, (Couldn't we try understanding)
to heal a world that's gone cold?  (The world has gone cold)
Try to accept one another. (try to accept one another)
By setting aside all our pride. (our pride)
Why not try standing together? (Why can't we, why?)
Tell me can you help me
Keep hope alive? 
Keep hope alive. (Alive, Alive)
Keep hope alive (Alive, Alive)
Hope alive (alive)
