Easy to Lose Hope Songtext
von Eleanor McEvoy

My home town? s dear to me, it? s always in my sight
My city? s shadows walk around in broad daylight
They? ll even shoot a woman down for what she writes
So now you pay for civil liberty with life

So hard, it? s easy to lose hope for everyone
So bad, it? s easier to never take it on

But we can? t give up
And we can? t lose hope
And we cannot hide away

We can overcome
But we must be strong
And we must not be afraid

You must not ever stop the search for peace within
′Cause if you find it, there? s no better prize to win
In losing peace of mind you? re losing everything
Don? t draw away from it, whatever shape you? re in

So hard, it? s easy to lose hope for everyone
So bad, it? s easier to never take it on


But we can? t give up
And we can? t lose hope
And we cannot hide away

'Cause we can overcome
But we must be strong
And we must not be afraid

With all our songs and stories we have brushed aside
The very nature of a beast we tried to hide
With all the ugliness this city has to fight
How could we leave it to a mother and a wife?

So hard, it? s easy to lose hope for everyone
So bad, it? s easier to never take it on

But we can? t give up
And we can? t lose hope
And we cannot hide away

We can overcome
But we must be strong
And we must not be
We must not be afraid

We must not be afraid
We must not be afraid


We can? t give up
And we can? t lose hope
And we cannot hide away

We can overcome
But we must be strong
And we must not be
We must not be afraid

We must not be afraid
We must not be afraid
