wasted mind, wasted thoughts

Flight To Hope

Dreams are there to be pursued,
but not to be realised
You can spend your whole life chasing
running with all your might
Tell me, who will know your plight?

The sweat runs down your brow
You feel the strain and the pain
You swollow your remaining pride
Your past is throw aside
Tell me, who can take things by their stride?

Pick up the remains,
run along with me
Strike the fears that come
Arm yourself and fight
Prepare to take flight

Be brave my friend
Hope still embraces,
whatever's left of you
Arm yourself and fight
Prepare to take flight

You grow weak with fear
Your vision weakens
All you see is no longer clear
Your wounds still fresh from battle
Tell me, who will stay and fight?

Left with no one else
Friends slain and captured
Some flee with cowardice,
others strike you fro behind
Tell me, who will stay by your side?
