[00:02.70]
[00:08.17] There is a man that I know
[00:10.36] Seventeen years he never spoke
[00:14.80] Guess he had nothing to say
[00:17.83]
[00:19.28] He opened his mouth on judgement day
[00:21.74]
[00:27.58] I listened with all of my might
[00:32.05] I was scared by the look in his eyes
[00:34.74]
[00:35.86] Like he'd already lost the fight
[00:39.24]
[00:39.99] And there was no hope ever in sight
[00:42.42]
[00:47.55] No hope in the air
[00:50.24]
[00:50.80] No hope in the water
[00:52.55]
[00:53.55] Not even for me, your last serving daughter.
[00:55.92]
[01:00.49] Why fear death, be scared of living
[01:03.42] Oh hearts are small and ever thinning
[01:07.05]
[01:07.86] There is no hope ever of winning
[01:10.36]
[01:12.67] Why fear death, be scared of living
[01:15.42]
[01:20.67] I have seen men provoked
[01:21.82]
[01:24.89] And I have seen lives revoked
[01:28.14] And I looked at my life and I choked
[01:32.53] From there no more ever I spoke
[01:36.09]
[01:41.23] I can't give up that quick
[01:44.31] My life is a candle and a wick
[01:48.63] You can put it out but you can't break it down
[01:52.72] In the end we are waiting to be lit
[01:56.47]
[01:59.60] There's hope in the air
[02:01.53] There's hope in the water
[02:03.72] But sadly not me, your last serving daughter.
[02:07.26]
[02:11.65] A friend is a friend forever,
[02:15.16] And a good one will never leave, never.
[02:18.60]
[02:19.28] But you've never been south and what rolls off your mouth
[02:22.91] You will never understand the ever.
[02:25.72]
[02:29.04] You speak minds handed down to you
[02:31.66]
[02:33.28] By the lies handed down by your truth
[02:36.47]
[02:37.28] And your angels that dance at your wail
[02:40.89]
[02:41.89] Will mask your scrabbling youth
[02:45.39]
[02:47.58] I forgave you your shortcomings
[02:50.89]
[02:51.96] And ignored your childish behaviour
[02:56.08] Laid a kiss on your head and before I left said
[03:00.33] Stay away from fleeting favour
[03:03.77]
[03:06.89] There's hope in the air
[03:09.27] There's hope in the water
[03:10.58] But sadly not me, your last serving daughter.
[03:14.89]
[03:34.67] Pick up your rope lord, sling it to me
[03:38.67] If we are to battle I must not be weak.
[03:42.33] And give us your strength world, and your food and your water
[03:46.14] Oh I am your saviour, your last serving daughter.
[03:50.90]
[03:53.96] There's hope in the air
[03:55.53] There's hope in the water
[03:57.46] But sadly not me, your last serving daughter.
[04:02.28]
[04:04.34] There's hope in the air
[04:05.96] There's hope in the water
[04:08.21] But no hope for me, your last serving daughter.
