Music and Lyrics by Pheroze Karai

lyrics

I feel the night cold inside a gun
killing what I've done
to keep hope alive

I seal the light tight inside my eyes
fearing no surprise
to keep hope alive

I listen to sighs and the royal highs
move with the sunrise
to keep hope alive

I stay on the run losing all the fun
the change that I've become
to keep hope alive

Every time I feel their anger
there's that old sad laughter mocking me
And every gaze into their eyes is the old sad laughter watching me

I search for my highs in my chemical prize
making all things right
to keep hope alive

I look to a science, the theories of our lives
staining all our minds
to keep hope alive

I pray to a god to make sure there are no rights
for those that I don't like
to keep hope alive

I swim in the sea to wash away my woes
and call in all my ghosts
to keep hope alive

Every time I feel their anger there's that old sad laughter mocking me
And every gaze into their eyes is the old sad laughter watching me

Flying high, up above the clouds
the songbirds sing aloud
to keep hope alive

Maybe they'll dive and crawl inside our minds
Remind us what it's like
to keep hope alive
