[Verse 1]
My eyes see through the lies
And I see the wolves among the sheep
I smell the fear inside
And the odor brings me to my knees

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm at the end of my rope hanging on
These scars are dragging on my soul
And we won't let go
We could live forever if we just let go now

[Chorus]
Hope begets hope
Stand strong
To the winds of adversity
Hope begets hope
Stand your ground
And, no, we won't go
No marching orders
Get up off of your knees now
Hope begets hope
Stand your ground

[Verse 2]
I crawl on to the pyre
And the flames they purify my pain
I'm writhing in desire
All this hatred has been all in vain
[Pre-Chorus]
Have you ever been the hated one
Face-to-face with the flaws upon your soul?
Let the truth unfold
We could live forever if we just let go now

[Chorus]
Hope begets hope
Stand strong
To the winds of adversity
Hope begets hope
Stand your ground
And, no, we won't go
No marching orders
Get up off of your knees now
Hope begets hope
Stand your ground

[Bridge]
I will prevail
And I've been running from
The long arm of the law
I've got to live for better days
This depression that's inside of me
It eats away at the bones that are supporting me
I have to fight back with our every sound
Take my hand and never let me drown
Now
[Guitar Solo]

So, tell me, have you ever been the hated one
Face-to-face with the flaws upon your soul?
Let the truth unfold
We could live forever if we just let go now

[Chorus]
Hope begets hope
Stand strong
To the winds of adversity
Hope begets hope
Stand your ground
And, no, we won't go
Fuck their orders
Get up off your knees now
Hope begets hope
Stand your ground

[Outro]
Face the flaws on your soul
Let the truth unfold
We're gonna live forever
