robotic hero

this is the place where light's caught on the bend
against the dark a single glimpse of sun
no one expects to know what hope can mend

your choices do not mean you must pretend
to make false claims and shout that you have won
this is the place where light's caught on the bend

the most notorious crook cannot defend
even the angel's honest sin begun
no one expects to know what hope can mend

your word and mine together cannot send
the message past wherever it was spun
this is the place where light's caught on the bend

do not despair for what we may intend
there are still matters that can be undone
no one expects to know what hope can mend

your duty is to save what we would spend
and show us all the road that we must run
this is the place where light's caught on the bend
no one expects to know what hope can mend
