Hope Songtext

von Re-Animator

Sinking deeper in the mire of despair
Hands of hate pulling me down
I kick and fight for the love of my life
What is this place I've found

Dark nothings whisper, eroding my mind
They're trying to take my soul
I believe in things real, the things that I feel
Keep me reaching out for hope

Can nothing stop this endless pain
The misery I've brought upon myself…
I wish they'd stop
Cannot anyone make them go away
I'm too afraid to even close my eyes
Knowing when I do, they'll be there, waiting for me
The fear of death – within

Pleasure out there, people that care
Pulling me from my despair
Time to meet them, try to reach them
I've lost my way but hope is there

Re-birth of life, say farewell
To my darkest strife
My time has come, the new born son
Must grasp the virgin light

I'm sinking, so slowly
The pain
I'm helpless
Please take me away

I kneel and pray for me, master to save
Come liberate me from my darkness
I sense a spirit of new life from within
Within thyself I no longer feel loneliness

To take me home is my only desire
Holy deceiver get thee behind me
No more this torment, evil, decadence
I've suffered so long, won't you leave me be

On through my search I commence with no fear
My trust in God keeping my path clear for me
A blinding light breaks out through the skies
Dividing truth from your never ending lies

Your supremacy's fading, you're losing your hold
You'll never take my soul
Now I know your weakness, it rests in my eyes
Forever be the unfortold!
