Desperation In This Hopeless Hour
The conversations begin
They gather in the desperate hour for a way out.
Out of this scheme
Out of the hole we have dug ourselves in
Congress meets for the ultimate safety escape.
It’s all far from safe.
All far from the escape.
Dream on
We need to fall from our thrones
To save this nation.
The green talk fills the room
The speeches all blurry and set for doom
We can make this a safer place
Follow me to the escape
Trust in me I can lead you to safety
Dream on
We need to fall to our knees
And cry for an answer that stretches beyond you and me
Our roots begin to decay
As we crucify the dream all in one day
What has been broken cannot be glued
Debate and debate all signs lead to one answer
We must go back to our ancestors
Go back to the origin of this day
May this hour perish
May peace be spread
Our crosses block our path
As we lay down the pact we once had
