"No Treasure But Hope" lyrics

"No Treasure But Hope"

No treasure but hope
No treasure
The end of a rope
No pressure

No treasure but hope
No love on our streets
Only fear in our hearts
No love on our streets
Only fear in our hearts
No treasure but hope

Too many stars for the counting
Lessons for the learning
Lessons for remembering
Too many stars for the counting
Lessons for the learning
The trick is the escaping

No treasure but hope
No love on our streets
Only fear in our hearts
No love on our streets
Only fear in our hearts
No treasure but hope

Too many stars for the counting
Lessons for the learning
Lessons for remembering
Too hungry to think of the providence
Too angry for the consequence
We raised our hands for the counting

We raised our hands for the counting
Fill our bellies with worms
No treasure but hope

Under a shower of all our days
Listening to the sunshine
Burn our lawns
The trick is the escaping
No treasure but hope
