Mother mother
tell your children
That their time
has just begun
I have suffered
for my anger
There are wars
that can't be won
Father father
please believe me
I am laying down
my guns
I am broken
like an arrow
Forgive me forgive
your wayward son
(Everybody needs
somebody to love
Everybody needs
somebody to hate
Everybody's bitching
'cause they can't
Get enough)
and it's hard
To hold on
when there's no one
To lean on
(faith) you know
You're gonna live
thru the rain
Lord you got to
keep the faith (faith)
Don't let your love
turn to hate
Now we got to
keep the faith
Keep the faith
keep the faith
Lord we got to
keep the faith
Tell me baby
when I hurt you
Do you keep it
all inside
Do you tell me
all's forgiven
And just hide
behind your pride
(Everybody needs
somebody to love
Everybody needs
somebody to hate
Everybody's bleeding
'cause the times
Are tough)
well it's hard
To be strong
when there's no one
To dream on
(faith) you know
You're gonna live
thru the rain
Lord you got to
keep the faith
(Faith) now you know
is not too late
Right now we got to
keep the faith (faith)
Don't let your love
turn to hate
Lord we got to
keep the faith
Keep the faith
keep the faith
Oh you got to
keep the faith
Keep the faith
keep the faith
Lord we got to
keep the faith~
I've been walking
in the footsteps
Oh society's lies
I don't like
What I see no more
sometimes I wish
That I was blind
sometimes I wait
Forever to stand out
in the rain
So no one sees
me cryin'
Trying to wash away
the pain
(Everybody needs
somebody to love
Everybody needs
somebody to hate
Everybody's bitching
'cause they can't
Get enough
everybody needs
Everybody
keep the faith)
(Faith) you know
you're gonna live
Thru the rain
Lord you got to
Keep the faith
(faith)
Don't let your love
turn to hate
Right now we got to
keep the faith
Keep the faith
keep the faith
Keep the faith
keep the faith
Everybody
keep the faith (faith)
Keep the faith
keep the faith
(Everybody needs
somebody to love
Everybody needs
somebody to hate
Everybody needs
somebody to love)
