Can we walk in hope into another new year ?

Can we walk in hope

Into another new year

Just to cast away the ghosts

Or to have the time again ?

You said hold on to dreams

But I know you don't try

Cos you're innocent,

I know that you won't survive

I heard the phone ring

So late at night that 

I thought someone had died.

But your voice was full of hope

Like it was on better days,

On clear mornings

When the rain had left the sky

I can't stand the thought of you alone

Don't try to get close to us

Because there's nothing

but our souls laid bare.

Will we survive? I know we will

Hood, You Show No Emotion At All
