"Hope" lyrics - DUFF MCKAGAN

The clowns have come to rest
The Jester's sold his soul
The world has lost its laugh
Human kind is turning cold
It's time to say your grace
It's time to call your friends
Start your laughing instead of crying
'Cause the end is nowere near...yeah

A man died of fear today
They say he lost way
Time bomb in Central Park
Don't go out after dark
It's time to say your grace
It's time to call your friends
And start you laughing instead of crying
'Cause the end is nowhere near...yeah
Heaven only hopes, heaven only knows
To see her children just laughing
Not dying for someone's faith

Hope is what she gave her love for
Fear because she's been alone before
Fate so that you'd fight a holy war
I still don't get it
Heaven only hopes

A child was born today
Pure innocence of heart
Hope bristles from her smile
Fate laidens in the dark
It's time to say your grace
It's time to call your friends
And start your laughing instead of crying
'Cause the end is nowhere near...yeah
Heaven only hopes, heaven only knows
To see her children just laughing
Not dying for someone's faith
Dying for someone's faith
Dying for someone's faith
