hope can't die

i heard the news last week

rude shock! fell to my knees

the truth feels like a stranglehold

words of comfort seem so cold

you've always been like a brother to me

now i'm forsaken

my heart's filled with grief

from early childhood we have been like one

through thick and thin so sad that you're gone

anger! is what i'm feeling

'bout fate and destiny

they are coldblooded bringers

of pain and misery

guilty! my first emotion

am i the one to blame?

could i have seen it coming?

my doubts turn into shame

neither ambition

nor good intent or lie

will ease the sorrow

life means death

hope can't die!

it took some courage

until i realized

that we're all mortal

life goes on

hope can't die!

life goes on

hope can't die!

i saw your face last day

palest white! facade of clay

wish i had the guts to act

but now it's too late your death is a fact

so

dearest friend

may you now rest in peace

i won't forget you those good memories

here at your gravestone there is one thing i'll swear

deep in my heart

you'll always be there

anger! is what i'm feeling

'bout fate and destiny

they are coldblooded bringers

of pain and misery

guilty! my first emotion

am i the one to blame?

could i have seen it coming?

my doubts turn into shame

neither ambition

nor good intent or lie

will ease the sorrow

life means death

hope can't die!

it took some courage

until i realized

that we're all mortal

life goes on

hope can't die!

life goes on

hope can't die!

neither ambition

nor good intent or lie

will ease the sorrow

life means death

hope can't die!

it took some courage

until i realized

that we're all mortal

life goes on

hope can't die!

neither ambition

nor good intent or lie

will ease the sorrow

life means death

hope can't die!

it took some courage

until i realized

that we're all mortal

life goes on

hope can't die!

life goes on

hope can't die!
