Up with Dope, Down with Hope! Lyrics

Their perspective is led askew
Thoughts hidden behind a name,
But even if they knew, could anything change?
Just like you said, no one really cares, unless it's in their faces,
the images they see so clear; so ostentatious,
It's easier than facing the truth thinking lies are what sustains us
all they can do, is muddle through,
the grasp is too heavy, the norms too entrenched.
While they can't understand why, (why man!)
We're so depressed.
Pop a pill bottle take it full throttle to the head to the dome to cope
Cross your fingers, pull your triggers and hold out for…
Hope won't save us,
there's nothing more that you can do, to keep the world from watching you.
Someone hates us,
so stand aside the time is neigh, an empty heart is all you'll... (find.)

We can be better than what we are,
and everyday we don't fail to forget.
This night was made for shining stars,
But sometimes falling is all you get.
I don't know when the end will come, but I hope there's nothing to protect.
Our demise was written from the start, and it was all made possible, by neglect.
All you bastards, to the rafters, string you up with rope
All you cowards, sit and cower, let us leave you without --
Hope won't save us,
there's nothing more that you can do, to keep the world from watching you.
Someone hates us,
so stand aside the time is neigh, an empty heart is all you'll find.
Our fathers feel the burden of every war we’ve fought
I cannot be happy when everything's for naught.
I’ve stomached so much sadness, I’ve one last request
May our dreams not be discarded along with the rest.
Hope won't save us
Hope won't save us now!
