Amy's going back to school today,
Elation, jubilation streams from her face.
Did the halls smell of gunpowder still?
What made the human mind dark enough to kill?

A new hope,
Where is your freedom?
A new hope,
Cast off your burdens.

A darker world lies behind this one.
Cryptic it hides beneath perception.
We all saw it on that day,
Stunned we stood stuttering.
What did the news say?

A new hope,
Where is your freedom?
A new hope,
Cast off your burdens.
A new hope,
Where is your freedom?
A new hope,
Here is your freedom.

Peace
Fills us
By hope we steer
Our dark hearts salvaged.
We live without fear.
