Lost Our Faith

Begin with good intentions
Attention to the hopeless
Crusader for the cause
But the cause can cost a lot
And the sense it seems to slip
It slips in what we say
And we lose our way

Words can move a million
But a million compromises
Weaken your resolve
And resolve can cost a lot
When you’re listening to arrows
Pointed words may sway
And we lose our way

Pandering to power
Power of protection
Sell the future short
And giving all we’ve got
And the posters fade to silence
And the words they rot away
And we lose our way

We try, we try
To change minds
Despite the love we made
We lose our faith
