lyrics

After silence,
after rain,
Oh, Spirit,
Don’t go away again.
I have hope and
I have the memory of pain.

We are all children.
That remains the same, but
this big city was
built for some terrible games.
Well, I still have hope
through the memory of pain.
Ya, I still have hope through
the memory of pain.

-instrumental-

You’ve got your prison.
I’ve got my light.
You’ve got some ego
and I put up a fight.
Well, you think you know it all and I
also think I might.

Step into the ring.
Let’s go around again,
with sour faces
in the audience.
Well, let me see what you,
what you think you can bring.
Ya, let me see what you,
what you think you can bring.

Bring it. Bring it.

I feel as small as
the head of a pin.
I think that makes you feel good.
I think you got your win.
Well, I still have hope from
this position I’m in.

And after all this
you ask me how I’m doin’.
I can’t believe it:
You ask me how I’m doin’.
Well, I still have hope through
the memory of pain.
Ya,
I still have hope through
the memory of pain.
