Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There will be mornings you'll be utterly defeated by your laces
Days where every look looks condescending
Empty smiles in empty faces
The same old places, this stunning stasis
Just let your spirit slip away
Let all your troubles crumble and decay
There's more than one way out, if at the end of the day
You're at the end of your rope
[Verse 2]
Never give up hope
Never let yourself be defeated
If you tried it once you can try again
A new day will follow, there's always tomorrow
(Never give up hope)
Never listen to the unbelievers
You'll take your falls
You'll hit your walls, don't give into sorrow
(There's always tomorrow)
[Verse 3]
An everlasting, farcical disaster
You play your part, you march the march, you don't complain
You find a way, another day
Surrounded by a cast of half-wit bastards
Grinning masks amidst the grey
And yet, you stay sane and through the pain
The frozen pane of glass you strain to cast
Your gaze upon the path you have to tread
And in your head, that leaden dread
The fuckin' roads have all been trod
And there's no way and there's no God
And God, oh, God, this goddamn weather will last forever
(But you must never, never, never)
[Verse 4]
Never give up hope
Never let the odds overwhelm you
When the game gets hard don't throw in your cards
A new day will follow
(There's always tomorrow)
[Verse 5]
I've done everything I can, I've done my best and I
I tried so hard to find my way out of this mess but I
But I'm so tired
I swear to you I've tried
And sometimes I just want to give up
Just give up and stay here and live
But I know there's no point in denying that I will keep trying
I'm a lot of things, but I'm not a quitter
[Verse 6]
I'll never give up, never give up, never give
Never give up, never give up, never give
Never give up, never give up, never give up
Never give up, never give up, never give up
Never give up, never give up, never give up
Never give up, never give up, never give up
Never give up, never give up, never give up
Never give up
(Never give up hope)
[Verse 7]
Never give up, never give up, never give up
Never give up, never give
(Never give up hope)
(Never let yourself be defeated)
Never let yourself be defeated
(If you tried it once, you can try it again)
You tried it once, you can try it again
(A new day will follow)
A new day will follow
[Verse 8]
(If it isn't today have a little faith, there's always tomorrow)
(Never give up hope)
(Never give up hope)
(Never give up hope)
(Never give up hope)
[Verse 9]
Hold on to your faith, you'll find another way
After acid and gas and guns and razors and rope
You may wanna live but baby, but don't give up
Hope
