Anthem
Cocksparrer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Give me your hopes, give me your dreams
Give me your conscience and your fears
I'll keep them safe, I'll hold them dear
And I'll believe in you

When you're blind I'll be your eyes
When you're weak I'll carry you
When hope is gone I'll pull you through
And I'll believe in you

In darkest hours, in troubled times
Through seas of fire and fields of lies
When all is lost in clouds of pain
I'll be your comfort and your guide

When all around the battles rage
Remember you were born to be free
I'm in your blood, your part of me
And I'll believe in you

In darkest hours, in troubled times
Through seas of fire and fields of lies
When all is lost in clouds of pain
I'll be your comfort and your guide

So when you need me there just call
When your back's against the wall




I'll never let you fall
And I'll believe in you
