A Breath Of Hope

As I wait silent here alone in the shadows In your breath of hope I shall believe From the frontline in time you'll be coming home Till then I feed on faith and dreams Quarantine and distance, isolation day by day Things fall apart as we ascend And if tomorrow I should leave this place Take me to the heavens and back again As we dare to breathe The air that kills will recede Empty streets and empty towns Tucked in our safe hideaways Hiding from of an enemy, can you hear the sound I hear the sirens as you leave today To another place where the air is clean Floating down the river to the sea In a breath of hope, we believe In a breath of hope, we believe This too shall pass, we are free A breath of hope will set us free Doctors and nurses line up by my bedside Health care workers and orderlies Cleaners and cooks acting soldiers and saints Fight an invisible enemy A war for the living the dead rest in peace Your strength of love, we can't deny Martyrs dying each day for their keep Share in this end, and we will rise As I plug in to this machine With you my only memory Empty streets and empty towns Tucked in our safe hideaways Hiding from of an enemy, can you hear the sound I hear the sirens as you leave today To another place where the air is clean Floating down the river to the sea In a breath of hope, we believe In a breath of hope, we believe This too shall pass, we are free A breath of hope will set us free
