Hopeful Voices Through the Silence Lyrics

In the halls of our youth where we learn and we play

Echoes of laughter but shadows loom grey

Textbooks and dreams yet we're forced to the test

Not just of our minds but in surviving the rest

We stand in the light though the darkness invades

In a world where our safety it fades and it frays

But together we're stronger our voices will soar

Through the fear and the pain we will endure and more

Morning announcements a roll call of dread

Not just for homework but for those we have shed

In the corners a whisper of deals gone wrong

Lost to addiction their stories live on

We stand in the light though the darkness invades

In a world where our safety it fades and it frays

But together we're stronger our voices will soar

Through the fear and the pain we will endure and more

Look left look right see the hope in our eyes

Bound by our struggles under the same skies

Lift one another from despair we will rise

In the echo of the lost our spirit never dies

Every step to our class with a prayer in our breath

Vigilance our companion in the dance with death

Yet in this chaos a truth we find dear

In our unity there's nothing to fear

We stand in the light though the darkness invades

In a world where our safety it fades and it frays

But together we're stronger our voices will soar

Through the fear and the pain we will endure and more

So we march on with our dreams in our hands

Building a future on stronger stands

In the heart of the storm our spirits ignite

Together in the struggle we're a beacon of light
