Hope For Now

This hallway's dark and empty

Just miles and miles of endless road

I've got a sickness pounding in my head

I'm at the mercy of the ghosts



What will it take to live

As if I would not another day

To live without despair

And to be without disdain



How can I instill such hope

But be left with none of my own?

What if I could sing

Just one song

And it might save somebody's life



I sought after

After the reasons to stay

I was lost

I was lost



Then the sky turned black

And the rains poured down

I was waiting

Waiting to be found

Oh, no



How can I instill such hope

But be left with none of my own?

What if I could sing

Just one song

And it might save somebody's life



Therein I would sing

All that I can say

Because that is when

When I feel that I'm not just counting time



Oh, when I sing

All that I can say

Maybe just for the moment

Things would seem all right



Oh, when I sing

Oh, when I sing

Oh, when I sing

Oh, when I sing
