Hope Is A Dangerous Word

You have a picture on a shelf that I must fit inside you drew yourself
This can't be the way we fall we're stepping up in new resolve

An ultimatum on the table without force
These words explode out of this heart with no trace of remorse
Shining like the brightest star above the ocean in the night
Close your heart, open your mouth
Avert your gaze tonight

Our faith in this is wounded
We've laid a trap to fall too far
Throw off these chains
And rearrange these scars

Fear is waiting, hope creating these ideals
Burning bridges to the roads of hope, the spinning wheels
There's no way out but through the wire, so torch the coals
Burn the maps that lead us back here to these broken roads

How many bridges can we brun for this?
Just to prove it can be done

We'll keep this alive
Under watchful eyes deprived
Won't give up this fight
We'll still hold on until it dies
