Hope

(álbum: Franklin's Room - 2013)

The child was given food
But did not eat it
The child was given shelter
But did not sleep in it
The child was given love
But did not take
The child was shown a path, hm
That he could not make

The boy was given hope
But hope prevailed him
The boy was given a chance
But that chance failed him
The boy was given love
But did not take
The boy was shown a path, hm
That he could not make

But he was hoping for the better
Just like another man would do, no
But now it's only rainy weather
Nothing's new
What to do

See the mornings come
But he don't see the morning sun
So he waits
He don't wait
He don't wait for the morning's love

See the morning has come
And the dark night will go
But still there's no sun
Just the mystic still shows
And I'm feeling your shine
Just this rhythm inside
Yet still he hopes
Everything will be alright

But he was hoping for the better
Just like another man would do, no
But now it's only rainy weather
Nothing's new
What to do

When the morning comes
