Shadow Gallery - Hope For Us lyrics

Too late for us now?

I sat alone and I spoke out loud

On this darkened afternoon

The windows to my room

A solemn shutter on the world

Where I used to laugh and dream

For the first time in so long I make

My way down to the street and watch

The people as they pass

Outside I breathe the air

And all around fall shadows of despair

I wonder is there hope for us

A place where we can all be free

I wonder is there life inside a soul that dies?

I wonder is there hope for us

To lift me up I don't know when

I'll see the sun again

I'd like to feel alive

Just one more time

Headlines on the floor

Today's bitterness is the calling card

The commercial masquerade

The goods all on parade

The needs of life are charming toys

We've gone deaf from all the noise

WHen did the rich and powerful elite

Slowly and unnoticed

Come and steal our innocense?

Entranced - we danced their dance

The stage is set the crowd is on their knees

I wonder is there hope for us

A place where we can all be free

I wonder is there life inside a soul that dies

I wonder is there hope for us

We're stranded with no place to go

I'm feeling so alone

I'll try to make my way

Through one more day
