Hope Lyrics by Flogging Molly

Life Is Good

0

It's another eight years of the same bloody fears
as the engine that grinds to a halt

No more of this rhetoric, our words they are septic
there's blood on the hands of us all

So let's tune ourselves out
dig our heads in the ground
we'll watch as the tide drifts away

Drop holier life
kiss your beautiful wife
it's gonna all end with a punch

[chorus]
Oh, I said hope
it's still a shout away
a shout away like it was yesterday

I said hope
it's still a shout away
and away we shout once more

There's no black without tan
said the fiery young man
with a vengeance he'll never let go

His mother and father
their parents before them
all dreamt of a place to call home

but hope is the killer
to those who died willing
may they rest
in their peace
we now break

oh now hope
is the wiser
it breaks bread
with the mindless
there's no ghosts
only bodies
haunt the grave, haunt the grave

[chorus]

but maybe I'm wrong
but I've tried all along
to make sense of this hell up above

our pockets still empty
the virus now spreading
the joy of this madness behold

so say that our sins, we had none to begin
for as mortals we baptize the soul

there's always a day
when you hear someone say
with the young tell me
it's a joke

it's no joke

[chorus]

I said hope, still a shout away
I said hope, still a shout away
I said hope, still a shout away
And away we shout once more, once more

Ahh, I said hope, it's still a shout away, and away we shout once more.
