Verse When you go to sleep, do you dream for a better world? Where the living is easy, and thought of war is just absurd, I gotta tell you I do, yeah, Stand for peace and truth, But the way the world is run, they wanna stay in war, You gotta ask yourself, what we fighting for? I'm singing, Chorus Don't stand alone, When all hope seems lost, Hold on better days will come, woo-ooahh, Don't stand alone, When all hope seems lost, Hold on better days will come, yeah, Hold on better days will come. Bridge Woah, woah, woah, woah, Woah, woah, woah, woah, Verse Hear the word on the street, No-ones ready to give in to defeat, We know their talk is cheap, So hold it together, yeah hold it together, And when you're feeling lonely, Yeah when you're feeling down, Just look up at the stars and notice, there's still a cloud, And loneliness is just a period, And people will move along, Loneliness puts the fear in us, which soon the world will act upon, Cause it seems, The way the world is run, they wanna stay in war, You gotta ask yourself, what we fighting for? I'm singing, Chorus Don't stand alone, When all hope seems lost, Hold on, better days will come, woo-ah, Don't stand alone, When all hope seems lost, Hold on, better days will come, yeah, Hold on, better days will come. Middle 8 And when they come, yeah we'll tell them where to go, (Tell em where to go) Yeah when they come, yeah we'll tell them where to go, (Tell em where to go) Don't wanna live in a world where destruction lays, I speak for all when you hear me say. Chorus Don't stand alone, When all hope seems lost, Hold on better days will come, woo-ooah, Don't stand alone, When all hope seems lost, Hold on, better days will come, yeah, Hold on, better days will come, yeah, Hold on, better days will come, yeah, Hold on, better days will come.
