Hope

Look at the battle we're in

I was never one to pick a fight I couldn't win

Look at the secrets we keep

They terrorize me every night in my sleep

Afternoon tea with the impending doom

Counting the elephants here in this room

You can be twisted but still optimistic

Be the black sheep but not a statistic

May not know who you are but you know what you got

So hang on to the absurd

Hey, have you heard

Hope's not a four letter word

Put on a happy face

Make a scene and leave a permanent trace

Show me that rebel inside

Where the leader of the revolution resides

Afternoon tea with the impending doom

Counting the elephants here in this room

You can be twisted but still optimistic

Be the black sheep but not a statistic

May not know who you are but you know what you got

So hang on to the absurd

Hey, have you heard

Hope's not a four letter word

Careful, you might catch yourself going under

Careful, you might lose your breath like the others

Careful, you might slip and never recover

Careful, you might burn to death like the others

You can be twisted but still optimistic

Be the black sheep but not a statistic

May not know who you are but you know what you got

So hang on to the absurd

Hey, have you heard

Hope’s not a four letter word
