From the recording The Weight Of All This Hope
Lyrics
We were raised like half a whole
With no time to get old
Keep your eyes on stars and things you’ll never hold
And now, she’s just one more near miss
A raincloud, fake out kiss
You might not exist and what a plot twist that would be
Oh, after every show
I wave goodbye
Another wasted night
To change my life
The weight of all this hope
That never dies
Piling up
Pulling me down
And out of time
We were raised to be okay
With no room for the grave
‘Jesus saves so don’t dare forget it and feel down’
How about that thorny crown?
Or the blood spilt in this town?
I was always looking outside for someone to save me
Oh, after every show
I wave goodbye
Another wasted night
To change my life
The weight of all this hope
That never dies
Piling up
Pulling me down
And out of time
Falling out of time
You were out dancing
I was at home
We’re taking our chances
We walk back alone
My water’s still water
Your wine is still red
We can’t get drunk on the hopes in our heads
Oh, after every show
I wave goodbye
Another wasted night
To change my life
The weight of all this hope
That never dies
Piling up
Pulling me down
And out of time
