hope

James Bay

I m somebody tryna live a good life
Tryna feel alright
Tryna sleep at night
I m somebody who gets it wrong
Who never stays long
Who never says bye
Sometimes you gotta go it alone
Have a little hope

If I fall
If I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all
If I have to let it go
When my best
Feels like a joke
Still, I have a little hope

Tellin lies, tellin old wives tales
Like my mother said to make it feel better
Bent the truth cause I m losing my mind
I ve been dragging myself into Armageddon
But before that s all that I know
Have a little hope

If I fall
If I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all
If I have to let it go
When my best
Feels like a joke
Still I have a little hope
When it s dark
When it s a world of lonely shadows
And in your heart
Nothing s making sense
When you try
And when you choke
Still I have a little hope

Words get lost, get hard to hear
Good intentions disappear
Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope
So much, too much going on
So much, too much started going wrong
Learning what I broke
Still, I have a little hope

If I fall
If I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all
If I have to let it go
When my best
Feels like a joke
Still I have a little hope
When it s dark
When it s a world of lonely shadows
And in your heart
Nothing s making sense
When you try
And when you choke
Still I have a little hope

Words get lost, get hard to hear
Good intentions disappear
Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope
So much, too much going on
So much, too much started going wrong
Oh, I m learning, I m learning what I broke
Still I have a little hope

Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope
