Losing Hope
April 3, 2011
The sun shines through the soiled windows
Lighting up the corners of this bleak home
Throwing a pinch of hope into our unsatisfied hearts
We forget about the pain we put ourselves through
The fights, the lonely nights, fraying this family apart
This is the price we have to pay for it now
As we sit on these raggedy torn couches
Saying our prayers aloud
But there is no use, all that hope will be taken away
As we walk down that gravel road
As we go astray
