Lyrics
When hope and love has been lost and you fall to the ground
You must find a way When the darkness descends and you’re told it’s the end You must find a way
When god decides to look the other way and a clown takes the throne We must find a way Face the firing squad, against the odds You will find a way
Dig Down Dig Down Dig Down and find faith When you’re close to the edge With a gun to your head You must find a way
When friends are thin on the ground and they try to divide us We must find a way We have entered the fray and we will not obey We must find a way, yeah
Dig Down Dig Down Dig Down and find faith When they’ve left you for dead and you can only see red You must find a way
Dig Down Dig Down Dig Down, find faith We won’t let them divide, We will never abide We will find a way
aaahhh aaahhh
