[Verse 1] Sometimes what you need is what you fight Like a wounded man out on the run Like shadows hiding from the light But your love is what I was running from Hope's a seed you have to sow When you let it go it comes to life So you stretch your arrows on the bow And you pull them back and watch them fly [Chorus] My heartbeat, my oxygen My banner, my home My future, my song Your hope is the anthem of my soul [Verse 2] My lungs and I were born to fight Sometimes I'm not sure what I'm fighting for But d**h ain't the only end in sight Cause this ain't a battle it's a lifelong war [Chorus] My heartbeat, my oxygen My banner, my home My freedom, my song Your hope is the anthem of my soul Your hope is the anthem of my soul [Bridge] My heart is beating like a blown speaker The spirit is willing but the flesh is weaker A distortion pedal and a pair of wings And an anthem played on broken strings [Chorus] My heartbeat, my oxygen My banner, my home My future, my song Your hope is the anthem Your hope is the anthem of my soul [Outro] Your hope is the anthem of my soul Your hope is the anthem of my soul Your hope is the anthem of my soul Your hope is the anthem of my soul Yeah could you make me whole? (like holy water)
