I've been here before, it's all I've ever known
Looking for the face I am
Where do I go? All that's in my sight
Are darkened dreams of empty liesHope is there it is waiting it is real
You are only what you want to feel
I can see your eyes and they are askingWe're a new hope generation
We can see the wasted life in your faces
But we can see Messiah rise in these places
Until the tears are goneWe're a new hope generation
We can see the wasted life in your faces
But we can see Messiah rise in these places
Until the tears are goneI've seen you before, you're always on your face
Trying to find the traces left
Hungry and tired, waiting for your needs
Just hold him close he won't ever let you goHope is there it is waiting it is real
You are only what you want to feel
I can see your eyes and they are askingWe're a new hope generation
We can see the wasted life in your faces
But we can see Messiah rise in these places
Until the tears are goneWe're a new hope generation
We can see the wasted life in your faces
But we can see Messiah rise in these places
Until the tears are goneOpen, open arms, open arms let your spirit
Open, open arms, open arms let your spirit pourHere's the call to anyone at all
Who's ever had the rise right after a fall
It's revolutional when they come like this
They can't believe we're living representativesIt gives light unto the Gen X and Y
Resolution with no generic reply
I stand aside a genre that's on a tear, broken
Chains explain that we are almost thereWe're a new hope generation
We can see the wasted life in your faces
But we can see Messiah rise in these places
Until the tears are goneWe're a new hope generation
We can see the wasted life in your faces
But we can see Messiah rise in these places
Until the tears are goneYou think I will throw away but I don't care what you say
'Cause the one you pushed aside, will rule one day
You can no divide a unified youth nation
So where's my anointed now generation
