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`m broken like an arrow.
Forgive me, forgive your wayward son.

(CHORUS)
Everybody needs somebody to love / mother mother
Everybody need s somebody to hate / please believe me
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
Right now we got to
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith

Tell me baby when I hurt you
Do you keep it all inside
Do you tell me all`s forgiven
Just hide behind your pride

CHORUS
Everybody needs somebody to love / mother mother
Everybody need s somebody to hate / please believe me
Everybody`s bleeding `cause there 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
Now it`s not too late
Oh 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
Lord we got to keep the faith
SOLO

BRIDGE
Walking in the foodsteps
Of 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 crying
Trying to wash away the pain
Mother father


There`s things I`ve done I can`t erase
Every night we fall from grace
It`s hard with the world inn your face
Trying to hold on, trying to hold on


FAITH You know you`re gonna live thrut he 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
FAITH now it`s not too late
Try to hold on, trying to hold on
Keep the faith
