| Mother mother tell your children
|
| That their time has just begun
|
| I have suffered for my anger
|
| There are wars that can't be won
|
| Father father please believe me
|
| I am laying down my guns
|
| I am broken like an arrow
|
| Forgive me
|
| Forgive your wayward son
|
| Everybody needs somebody to love
|
| (mother, mother)
|
| Everybody needs somebody to hate
|
| (please believe me)
|
| Everybody's bitching
|
| 'cause they can't get enough
|
| And it's hard to hold on
|
| When there's no one to lean on
|
| Faith: you know you're gonna live thru the rain
|
| Lord you got to keep the faith
|
| Faith: don't let your love turn to hate
|
| Right now we got to
|
| Keep the faith
|
| Keep the faith
|
| Keep the faith
|
| Lord we got to keep the faith
|
| Tell me baby when I hurt you
|
| Do you keep it all inside
|
| Do you tell me al's forgiven
|
| And just hide behind your pride
|
| Everybody needs somebody to love
|
| (mother, father)
|
| Everybody needs somebody to hate
|
| (please don't leave me)
|
| Everybody's bleeding
|
| 'cause the times are tough
|
| Well it's hard to be strong
|
| When there's no one to dream on
|
| Faith: you know you're gonna live thru the rain
|
| Lord you got to keep the faith
|
| Now you know is not too late
|
| Oh you got to keep the faith
|
| Faith: don't let your love turn to hate
|
| Right now we got to
|
| Keep the faith
|
| Keep the faith
|
| Keep the faith
|
| Lord we got to keep the faith
|
| Walking in the footsteps
|
| Of society's lies
|
| I don't like what I see no more
|
| Sometimes I wish that I was blind
|
| Sometimes I wait forever
|
| To stand out in the rain
|
| So no one sees me cryin'
|
| Trying to wash away the pain
|
| Mother father
|
| There's things I've done I can't erase
|
| Every night we fall from grace
|
| It's hard with the world in yours face
|
| Trying to hold on, trying to hold on
|
| Faith: you know you're gonna live thru the rain
|
| Lord you got to keep the faith
|
| Faith: don't let your love turn to hate
|
| Right now we got to keep the faith
|
| Faith: now it's not too late
|
| Try to hold on, trying to hold on
|
| Keep the faith |
