High Hopes

Everything changes so fast
So restless in movement
For life improvement
Everyone hopes for the best
It's harder to keep up the pace
In all directions
Without feeling anxious
As days fly by in a haze.

We'll find a way to make it through
The darkest times.

We've got our hopes high
For a better life
For someone to find
A cure for mankind
We've got our hopes high
For an easy ride
Blinded by the light
We keep our eyes closed tight.

We are refining this art
Of making excuses
To rather be useless
Than to play our part
Desperate for someone to trust
Afraid of decisions
We believe politicians
Denying mistakes of the past.

Hope without action is just a dream
Mere good intentions won't set us free.

We'll find a way to make it through
The darkest times
A miracle is what we wish
And so tonight.

We've got our hopes high
For a better life
For someone to find
A cure for mankind
We've got our hopes high
For an easy ride
Blinded by the light
We keep our eyes closed tight.

Hope without action is just a dream
Mere good intentions won't set us free.
