LYRICS:

Mid: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes (I said)  (2x)

+High: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes (I said)  (2x)

+Low: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes (I said)  (4x)

Low Mid:  The part of you that is not alright
Is also the part that loves the light
And the part of you that is suffering 
Is the part that calls in change
and You don’t have to be ashamed (of it)
There is nothing to forgive
The part of you that is crying out
Is the part that wants to live (yeah)

All: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes (I said)  (4x)

High Mid: When the world is burning down
Getting hot is a sane reaction
But one in need of action
Because your spirit needs protection
So gather up your sinew
And gather up your faction (hey)
Hope is not a feeling, no
Hope is an action (yeah)

All: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes (I said)  (4x)

Low Mid: I’m gonna fall down on my knees 
All: That’s an act of living

High Mid: I’m gonna say, Will you help me please? (All: That’s an act…)

High: I’m gonna say, I am not alright (All: That’s an act…)

Low: I’m just trying to make it through this night (All: That’s an act…)

Low Mid: We’re gonna fall down on our knees (All: That’s an act…)

Echo: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes___

High Mid: Will we say, Help me please! (All: That’s an act…)

Echo: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes___

High: We can say, We are not alright! (All: That’s an act…)

Echo: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes___

Low: We can help each other get through the night  (All: That’s an act…)

Echo: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes___

Solo: Hope comes from the center of the hurt, in the middle of the dirt 

Echo: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes___

(All: That’s an act of living)

Solo: We’ll plant a seed and watch it grow, into something we don’t already know

Echo: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes___

(All: That’s an act of living)

All: Hope comes from the place where the hurt comes (I said)  (4x)
