Hopeless

In the silence of her room, she lies alone, Her stories flow on the phone, in the dark, unknown. Rain taps the window, a rhythmic sorrow, In the storm of life, she feels so hollow. Chorus: But the dreams won't die not tonight With the strength of her father she'll fight. From the ashes of despair she'll rise To the halls of Cambridge she'll set her eyes. Abandoned by friends, when troubles unfurled, In the new world of pretense, she's a genuine pearl. Mates and Teachers blind to the pain that's unspoken, But in her heart, the spirit remains unbroken. Chorus: But the dreams won't die not tonight With the strength of her father she'll fight. From the ashes of despair she'll rise To the halls of Cambridge she'll set her eyes. In the quiet of the rain, she makes a vow, To her lost family, she won't disavow. The path is lonely, but she will endure, For the dreams of tomorrow are pure. Chorus: But the dreams won't die not tonight With the strength of her father she'll fight. From the ashes of despair she'll rise To the halls of Cambridge she'll set her eyes.
