The Martyrs of democracy are lying in the street,
People with the power, kill to keep their piece,
A string of lies justifies, whatever they decide will be, and steal the right of liberty.
And I hope it's gonna be alright, (it's gonna be alright), alright
And I hope it's gonna be alright, (it's gonna be alright), alright
Naivete, the sanctuary, was bequethed to the young,
we hand them a legacy of all we have become,
The moral crimes of evil minds, forever blinded by their greed, have lost all sight of honesty.
And I hope they're gonna see the light, (it's gonna be alright), alright
And I hope they're gonna be alright, (they're gonna be alright), alright
Fuel the fire with our desire, to buy a life of luxury, and peace of mind with charity,
And I hope I'm going to sleep tonight, (it's gonna be alright), alright
And I hope they're gonna be alright, (they're gonna be alright), alright
aaaaar, it's gonna be alright, (it's gonna be alright), alright
aaaaar, (it's gonna be alright), alrightOh, hello and goodbye
so fast it's gone
I can't get your face from my mind
can't get your eyes from my
can't stop your voices
on that day you told me directions to where I don't know now
it all flew by me
so all I can do is hope that you
come my way
oh and you're nowhere near me
and wait
that you'll be there and hope that
with luck, I'll see you again
Oh I didn't get your name
nor you mine
or the time of day
but you're stuck on me like a fly on a table
oh I'm waiting here where we stood for just a moment
and you stole my way
and I, and I wonder will I see you again
and way, way
without the smile, the smile that blows away
the wait is too long
I want this thing to go on
and there's no way that I might find you again
I must walk a while
I'm all released by mine
bump into each other
it seems so right
and say hey
aren't you the
weren't you the
don't you think
but I don't think it's going to happen that way
I fear you'll remain a dream
rain, rain on me, yeah, yeah, yeah
your life is burned
your life burned into me
it didn't
will I ever
