Never Lose Hope

Things grow darker every day

Can't remember what I'm thinking

Pretty soon I'll loose my way

And into dark despair I'm sinking

In my mind I'm cold and tired

Yet my heart insists on beating

I pray once more to be inspired

I hear a little voice repeating

CHORUS:

Never lose hope because your spirit never dies

You're stronger than you think if you open up your eyes

Take a look inside yourself and then 'round where you stand

And maybe, yes, just maybe the answer's waiting in your hand

Friends are calling on my name

To raise their spirits I endeavor

Their pain, like mine, is just the same

I tell them "No, it's not forever!"

Step by step, it's darker still

Every vein inside is severing

Going on's an act of will

And on that voice I'm betting everything

Become as simple as the wind or as the beasts upon the earth

Learn to control the inner power that was bestowed on you at birth

May have to give yourself a shove or just step back and take a breath

When you have conquered fear of love, you know that you have conquered death
