Idle Cure: Silent hope [lyrics]

Idle Cure

Silent hope

Another blackout in the city

Another promise laid to waste

Streets are beckoning the cries of pity

You've grown accustomed to the taste

Putting on the window dressing

Search for someone to anoint

Pay the money for his deadly blessing

One step closer to the point

You try to hide it

you can't hide the truth

You try to fight it

you can't fight the truth

(Chorus):

See the light as you steal away

Does the truth cut like a knife

Is this a dream you have found the way

Or has the nightmare come to life

In the alley you lay broken

Neon message "Jesus Saves"

Thru the tears a silent hope is spoken

A shining light for midnight slaves

(Chorus)
