lyrics

Sing another borrowed tune,
Sing it in your empty room,
Sing it way out of key,
Sing it any way you please.

Sing it right through the night,
Sing it when your chains seem tight,
Sing it if you’ve lost your fight
And sing it in the morning light.

Sing it out of your despair,
Sing it if there’s no one there.
When you lose the thing you love the most
Sing your little song of hope.

Sing another cliched line,
Sing all your obvious rhymes,
Sing it when your drunken blind,
Yeah sing it way out of time.

Sing it when your faith’s run out,
Sing it when you’re racked with doubt
Sing it when the world seems strange,
Sing it if you long for change.

Sing it for the empty kiss,
Sing it for the days you’ve missed,
When everything is ash and smoke,
Sing your little song of hope.

Sing it when you’re full of rage,
Sing it the your courage fails,
If all that you can feel is pain,
Sing it once again the same.

Sing it when you’ve lost your trust,
Sing it when you’ve had enough,
Sing it when they system’s fucked,
Yeah sing it when you're giving up.

Sing it when the odds are stacked,
Sing it when your life just drags,
When you don't know if you’ll stay afloat,
Sing your little song of hope.
