The Dan Tucker Band - Hope Of The Dead Return lyrics

Help thou mine unbelief but I can see right through the veil/ the greatest attempt in histories illusion is now about to fail. Covered up tombs and emptied out wombs--baskets full of illusions to be/ Age-old lies and broken peace-ties pave the way to eternity. CHORUS: Is this the hope of the living? Is this all that has to be said/ Is this the future of humanity? Is this the hope of the dead (yeah yeah) Father please forgive me but I can't see the light/ The light of this world and its reflections have been overcome by night. Tarnished bra** and broken stained-gla**--proof the destroyer is me & you/ Cankered-gold and love waxed cold--deep inside we always knew. (CHORUS) I cry for a deliverer but I see no deliverance ahead/ Hope has built many temples but the steeples mark the tombs of the dead. Shadows fill eyes--your dead will not rise--the blackest sabbath this world ever knew/ Spiders domain/preacher's insane--you've come to know the real you. (CHORUS) Is this the hope of the living. Is this the hope of the dead. There is Hope for the living--there is Hope for the dead!!! (yeah yeah yeah)
