Hope - Balcony

Lost in a rave, and I can’t think quietly

Lost all sense of me

Going tragically

Because this is a place where the beautiful come to be

Speaking ugly

But romantically

But hope, is a scary fucking thing to hold onto

It’s another love affair that plays with you

It’s another happy pill that I see through

But hope, it’s a kind of messy drug that consumes you

It’s an arm around a stranger that you’re into

It’s the only thing that I had left

You know the young die tired

When they’re lost in desire

Never losing hope, never losing

Never losing hope, never losing

When the room goes quiet

And I’m down to the wire

Never losing hope, never losing

Never losing hope, never losing

Can’t get away, from the creatures fooling me

Glowing misery

Smiling sympathy

And the dusk won’t turn to dawn in a stolen car

Sparks a false alarm

I can’t beat the dark

But hope, is a scary fucking thing to hold onto

It’s another love affair that plays with you

It’s another happy pill that I see through

But hope, it’s a kind of messy drug that consumes you

It’s an arm around a stranger that you’re into

It’s the only thing that I had left

You know the young die tired

When they’re lost in desire

Never losing hope, never losing

Never losing hope, never losing

When the room goes quiet

And I’m down to the wire

Never losing hope, never losing

Never losing hope, never losing

When the music fades

Let the music fade

And you can see my face

You can see my face

I can see the light in you

When the music fades

Let the music fade

And you can see my face

You can see my face

Now we can let it all shine through

Cause hope, is a scary fucking thing to hold onto

It’s another love affair that plays with you

It’s another happy pill that I see through

But hope, it’s a kind of messy drug that consumes you

It’s an arm around a stranger that you’re into

It’s the only thing that I had left
