Hope
I speak soft
Hoping you'll hear me
Not too busy searching for your head and heart
I sing loud, but only in the beginning
Just to grab your attention
Will you bare witness to these words that have been so hard to find?
Look at me when I say I'm not just another one of your fucking push-away's
In your life, all you've seen
So sick and tired of all those movie scenes
I'll let you in, I'll pour you out
Let's build you straight up, turn you around and spit you out
I am hope

Look at me when I say I'm broken and disheveled yet still working a double on your heart
And in your head
Not to be confused with the lines about losing them
Oh, I'm speaking truthfully
I've spent so many sleepless nights just wondering, 'Will I ever be able to be your hope?'
Your hope

Shattered heart but you're calling it open-minded
Dare I say you're the one who makes me realize..

Our nights are not labeled as life,
Can we call them living?
I found these present-findings to be directly connected to your secret carings
Oh, I've been speaking truthfully,
I've spent so many sleepless nights just wondering, 'Will I ever be able to be your hope?'
Your hope

I sing strong
Will you just notice me?
Spewing these lines out, leaving my thoughts so dry
Just you know you're slowly brewing
A collection of moments
My tangle of words should explain my lack-luster last line
