Hard times Of those there have been plenty No home, no food, no mercy, no money Not a speck Of comfort up ahead Nothing but nightmare, a dream of deliverance dead That said what was left In a vagabond breath With the crack cocaine and the crystal meth The crumpling crayon of childhood vision Melts under the rain of Satanic permission To give Job a job Regardless of the wage Holding tight to the faith in an invisible cage One remedy reaches through the bars of the bane As the cemetery teaches how to love the remaining Melody of the lost-cause blues Singing that prayer higher than the brain that I swear I abused On the back of a memory made out of tragic Memories remembering that forgetting is magic Like I once knew a boy who didn't know how to hate Til one day long ago went wrong and he was late To the first day of school kicking cares in the air Fresher than the fact that life is not always fair So there I was open to the suffering and the sources Of abuse an excuse for addiction, divorces Skipping out on the rocks with a slice of the real To prove to my reflection I could really still feel And that's where that boy was left with nothing but the scattered Realizations that love's not a complicated matter That bad is necessary to carry the spirit To a place so low that the ear can't hear it What's a kid to do alone against the rest of the beings blessed But to accept that suffering is a test And to know in his heart that you can hear him right now In the prayer he sent up with a wish to allow you A little bit of hope goes a long, long way (Just look up at the sky tonight) Because you know you can always have a brighter day (Where the background's black but the stars are bright) Where the Sun shines through all the shadows of the past (For you) And you can believe and breathe the truth at last (Just for you) Just keep your eyes on the light in your soul (Take it in when it's all you got) Never forget, the Universe has made you whole (So much more than just a thought) Not a flaw in your core no matter how dark the night (Comes true) Your light's a spark born to ignite (It will come true) A little bit of hope goes a long, long way (Just look up at the sky tonight) Because you know you can always have a brighter day (Where the background's black but the stars are bright) Where the Sun shines through all the shadows of the past (For you) And you can believe and breathe the truth at last (Just for you) Just keep your eyes on the light in your soul (Take it in when it's all you got) Never forget, the Universe has made you whole (So much more than just a thought) Not a flaw in your core no matter how dark the night (Comes true) Your light's a spark born to ignite (It will come true) So this is for the kid without a shred of light Holding on to these words in the clutches of night A bus stop for a bed, a garbage can for a meal The only break you get broke is when you beg or steal What's real is the dawn and the end of this pain In a life that makes sense of material gain It's the same struggle from the beginning of winning Try to slow down sin but the world's still spinning So the Sun rises high and melts away dark skies Even misery flees from optimistic eyes Lift 'em to the future don't ever look down for doubt Benefit of the faith when you're down and out You're up and in time terrible but ladders are climbed One little rung at a time, it's an elusive design Breaking broken bread balances the meanest life challenges With the heart healed by the softening of callouses A little bit of hope goes a long, long way (Just look up at the sky tonight) Because you know you can always have a brighter day (Where the background's black but the stars are bright) Where the Sun shines through all the shadows of the past (For you) And you can believe and breathe the truth at last (Just for you) Just keep your eyes on the light in your soul (Take it in when it's all you got) Never forget, the Universe has made you whole (So much more than just a thought) Not a flaw in your core no matter how dark the night (Comes true) Your light's a spark born to ignite (It will come true) A little bit of hope goes a long, long way (Just look up at the sky tonight) Because you know you can always have a brighter day (Where the background's black but the stars are bright) Where the Sun shines through all the shadows of the past (For you) And you can believe and breathe the truth at last (Just for you) Just keep your eyes on the light in your soul (Take it in when it's all you got) Never forget, the Universe has made you whole (So much more than just a thought) Not a flaw in your core no matter how dark the night (Comes true) Your light's a spark born to ignite (It will come true)
