In hope this little angel will be free from all of their poisons

And in hope I grind my knees into the floor

Praying that he'll never have to feel the pain I have felt

Walking through glass ignorant of the pain in my feet



His sweet little hands, innocent face

So unaware of what lies in waiting



In hope there will be forever waiting for you

In hope you'll never look back and hate these days that I've held your hand

Falling away, changing each day to his own fate

Untill I am needed no more for his comfort of his joy



In hope there will be forever waiting for you

In hope you'll never look back and hate these days that I've held your hand

Falling away, changing each day to his own fate

Untill I am needed no more for his comfort of his joy



In hope there is an answer, and in hope I cry

But I am beaten just the same by this subtle game

As he breaks away I turn my face to the sky for a way to decline

These fairy tales that will mold into nightmares

This fate laid out in my hands

Unatoned I descend into my own indecision



In hope

In hope

In hope I can turn this page

Falling away, changing each day to his own fate

When I feel him go running on his own

Wait for something more there is not
