The Mourning After

All Songs

Today's the day that hope has died
For the future so many cried
That sweeping surge of dismay
This decision won't go away

Farewell to the poor
You don't matter any more
They say work hard and you'll be fine
With your blood on our hands we dine

Today's the day that hope has died
For the future so many cried
That sweeping surge of dismay
This decision won't go away

The people have spoken
But the signal has broken
I can't hear what they're saying
Do they know the game they're playing?

Today's the day that hope has died
For the future so many cried
That sweeping surge of dismay
This decision won't go away

Tell me we can reverse this
Or must I just stand here and hiss?
Since when did you care so little?
When did hope become so brittle?

Today's the day that hope has died
For the future so many cried
That sweeping surge of dismay
This decision won't go away
