"'As tired as I look right now
No matter how much I feel faint
As long as they believe
I'll keep my pain to a restraint
I look as though I've never been hurt
That I never have been tainted
But no one knows all the times
My face, the tears had painted
But I'm their hope, and I'm their faith
And I'll keep myself this way
For if my head stays high, not low
They'll see the light for the next day
I say goodbye, with a smile
I keep back all my tears
For I'm the hope, this world has had
For these many unfortunate years
They look towards me for answers
Yet they already have them deep inside
Though I'm patient, and I'm kind
With the anxiety that I hide
And to my people I'll keep standing tall
For they are what has kept me living
And all I ask in this one last sentence
Is that they keep on giving'
"And those my children, are the last words
Of the faith we had in human kind
And though the death was so untimely
We, my children, cannot rewind
Human kind has fallen slowly
Since our faith and hope has died
We still should keep hope within ourself
And hide it deep inside"
I looked up at the man
Telling me about this wonderful hope
A wonderful message, a beautiful one
But it was a slow unwinding rope
"Sir" I said, as polite as I could
"But wouldn't this hope be surreal?
If it had hid their feelings, keeping them inside
Who are we to praise someone who couldn't feel?
"Keeping their feelings locked away
Just to keep humanity alive and well
Just how many times have we been selfish
Saying things that we should tell?
"A hollow person they were, keeping it inside
Just so we wouldn't kill yourselves that night
I say we praise them not for their faith
But for the fact they sacrificed their every right"
He looked at me in my blue eyes
As the rest of the children looked at him
His face had fallen, his eyes had sunk
As he began to look so grim
Then tears in his eyes were pushed back
And he looked at me with a smile
"A smart one you are, my little dear,
For I've not felt for a while"
