"Hope Is The Anthem" lyrics - SWITCHFOOT

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 you 'em back and watch 'em fly

My heartbeat
My oxygen
My banner
My home
My future
My song
Your hope is the anthem of my soul
Oh
Oh

My lungs and I were born to fight
Sometimes I'm not sure what I'm fighting for
But death ain't the only end in sight
'Cause this ain't a battle, it's a lifelong war

My heartbeat
My oxygen
My banner
My home
My freedom
My song
Your hope is the anthem of my soul
Oh
Your hope is the anthem of my soul
Oh

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

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
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

Can You make me whole?
Can You make me whole?
Yeah, can You make me whole?
