Hope - Failsafe

So tell me now the truth

What are we to do

When all that’s left of what we thought we knew

Has no proof and no reason to subside?

The lives that we have tried to make out own

Are tested by the force that’s still unknown

It takes one moment for the world to bring you swiftly to your knees

The one component you should never let go is hope

The view from far away has changed

The road ahead may be long

The race is not run

Please do not delay for the battle is not yet won

We will pray for him

My son

It’s absurd!

The place I least expect

To find a source of comfort in this mess

Is holding outstretched arms

We haven’t found a cure

We’re witnessing the human race fighting its own war

But there’s still hope

The view from far away has changed

The road ahead may be long

The race is not run

Please do not delay for the battle is not yet won

We will pray for him

My son
