Isn't there more to life than hate and despair?
An apathetic population doesn't seem to care
Making lame excuses for our shortcomings
Hardening our hearts to the truly suffering
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
How much longer will we continue to go with the flow
Only to be crushed on the rocks below?
How much longer will we accept injustice as a given?
Decay in a society that's selfishness driven
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
And I wonder sometimes if it's all worthwhile
I wonder sometimes if I'll ever smile
Then I see the distant light from the elusive treasure I seek
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
Cynicism permeates my every thought
While still believing we can unlearn what we've been taught
Cynicism permeates my every thought
And I wonder sometimes if it's all worthwhile
I wonder sometimes if I'll ever smile
Then I see the distant light from the elusive treasure I seek
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
Searching for hope in a hopeless world
