Fists Up

I have tried My hopes have blossomed And my hopes have fried I tried to cut them all down But I found hopes were still living deep inside Like a team of renegade lovers Working long hours sneaking around With a belief in the life of our love Like a light at the end Of a long tunnel; a struggle [Chorus] Fists up! For all their faith in one preceding a face They really do believe that if They hang on long enough That you'll come around And finally let it show And all their hopes will be rewarded For their impetus to grow And utopian peace would fall across the land You'll reach over for my hand You'll really want to hold my hand [Bridge] And I don't want to come to the point of this song Because the point of this song Would have to be so long It gets hard: The vigilantes can't agree on who's in charge They gave their souls for the cause But the love that they were after's still at large See this faith in which they found allegiance Ripping at the seams as hope is running it's course The rebels just can't muster the force To walk the thin line between belief and delusion [Chorus] [Bridge] It was perfect you know With just one little problem The fact that it turns out You don't really want it My love is a fortress My love is the Louvre But it can't ever thrive If I'm forced to keep proving it
