Hands Of Love
miley cyrus Lyrics

When the white flag sails, covered in streaks of blood
Amidst the chaos, when all hope seems lost and all is shattered, and the epitome of surrender is reaching out, for one brief moment, salvation appears like a cursed object, a white flag that has been stained with the unrelenting bloodshed of those that have fought before

There'll be an endless sea, of us rising up
From the ashes of the past and the sacrifices it has wrought, a wave of survivors will climb up, standing tall despite the agony that has been thrust upon them

And the preacher man, and the preacher's son
Regardless of religious identity or personal beliefs, every human being is united in their desire to be free from suffering and injustice, standing as equals in their quest for love and acceptance

Stand arm in arm, just like everyone
Side by side, without prejudice, and without distinctions of race, gender, ethnicity, or any other divider, we all have a shared experience of life and stand together in pursuit of peace.

Me longing to be free, I won't let you fade away
As we face the challenges of existence, the fear of losing the people and places we love most can seem overwhelming, but our thirst for freedom is what pushes us forward, driving us to keep their memory alive and to endure.

We shed so many dreams, I'll let them fade away
The struggle of life is a long and arduous journey, rife with setbacks and failures, forcing us to abandon many of the dreams we once held dear, in the pursuit of greater goals and the promise of a brighter future.

In the hands of love, we carry on
Despite the many hardships we face, our love for each other and our determination to overcome continue to be the driving force behind all our actions, carrying us forward against all odds.

Stronger than we started
As we face unimaginable challenges and loss, we emerge stronger, and more resilient, able to endure and thrive where we once thought impossible.

Be ashamed of the trail behind us
It's easy to dwell on our past failures, the mistakes and regrets that have littered our journey, but to succumb to these feelings of guilt and shame can be counterproductive to our progress and impede our ability to move forward

Wicked is the blinded
The true evil in this world isn't constituted by acts of malice and cruelty, but by those who choose to remain ignorant, blindness to the world's suffering and the injustices that shackle us all.

Who we are comes to life, yeah Who we are comes to life
Despite everything, the essence of our being, our strength, weaknesses, hopes, and fears, come to life, taking shape through the world we experience, and the people we connect with.

When the water spills, the glass will break
When the weight of the world feels too heavy to bear, we can feel like something inside us may break beyond repair, like a glass filled to the brim can no longer sustain the stress and pressure of our struggles.

It drips like tears, running up your face
Our emotions run deep and can be overwhelming, sometimes spilling over like tears running up our face, a symbol of the inner turmoil that can be so difficult to control.

And the hounds will cry, for the dance of war
In times of war, aggressive and territorial instincts rise to the surface, like hunting dogs baying for blood, unable to think past the primal urge to fight at any cost.

But the sons of joy, their victory will soar
Amidst the destruction wrought by conflict, there are always those that strive for peace, who in the end will emerge victorious and soar with the joy of knowing that hope will always exist, even in the darkest of moments.

We come alive
Despite everything that we have been through, all the obstacles, the struggles, the pain, and the sacrifice, in the end, it's the very act of living- even in the face of suffering- that makes us feel most truly alive.
