Thrice - Hold Fast Hope Lyrics

How can you be sleeping?
Waves like weapons crash.
O’er us, cry for mercy and hold fast hope. 

Who of us is cursed, or do we have to ask?
Search your souls and hold fast.
If no one speaks a word, then let the lots be cast,
Truth be told and hold fast.

White death wakes in black skies, mark your maker’s wrath.
Fear and flames of azure climb the crooked the mast.
You will yet be baptized, steeped in shattered glass.
Sink and sing your answer and hold fast hope.

As strong arms grip your shoulders like dead hands of the past.
Pray as you're tossed over, this breath could be your last. 

Quiet and cold.
Silent and slow.
Night black as coal.
Miles here below.

Find your faith and dive deep, through living gateways pass.
Lined with death and ivory, and hold fast, hold fast.

Deep beneath the black dawn, leagues from lightning's flash.
Ribs will raise cathedrals for the morning mass.
Steel yourself in sackcloth, roll your heart in ash.
Scrape your skin with steel wool and hold fast hope.

Ribs will raise cathedrals for the morning mass.
Scrape your skin with steel wool,
Cross your heart and hold fast hope.
Hold Fast Hope.
Hold Fast Hope.
