Hope Is Rising
I've lost all my earthly optimism
That it's all going to be alright
That the good will win this fight
Somewhere between youth
and disappointments
the dream became despair,
the love became a lie
Just now, I've reached
the end of my line
Just now, I'm too tired
to keep on trying
Hope is rising,
it's a sunrise for the end
Hope is rising,
and it's breathing for me again
Hope is rising again
Soon beneath the roses I will lie
All the memories of my days,
gathered to the sky
Soon every work
will find its worth
And all my strength returned,
to the water and the earth
Just when I reach
the end of my life
Just when my eyes
dim out the last light
From the sorrow, from the fear
From the loss and from the tears
From the darkness, from the pain
From the fall and from the grave
