Broken Hope
Theirs was a broken hope Living day to day With dreams of traveling far
and wide, come a day
Scarred by empty promising notes Just a matter of time to realize some gain The heavier the burden, the heavier the chain
Working all day, worrying all night To pay the bills, to keep the house Tattering burden, feeling lousy
Looking at their future, they had a dream A house, a car, a kid or two, maybe even a dog or a cat Next election: should they vote Republican or Democrat
Repeat!
