High Hopes

Growing up, things sometimes just don't work out and we have to accept that bitter truth.

I thought it was safe to die inside your arms

I hoped you would be the one to ease it all

But I am way too much for you and for anyone

No I am not okay, you know I have never been

And it kills me how you never even ask

You say you care, but I can see the truth

Your cold black heart is not my mess

In another life they could be us

In another life we would be the stars

You say that we were wrong from the start

You say you wrote me all those words you'd never sent

I hate how hard it is for me to let you go

And I hate how you never ever mind

I feel lonely and I'm so alone

I wish I had your heart because it's made of stone

When the darkness falls and I'm left to bones

You hear me call, but no answer to the phone

And no I am not naive, I just had hopes

They killed me and they left me all alone

Have mercy on my broken heart

Have mercy on my shattered soul

I thought I was fun to be a friend

But it turns out I have never ever been

Acquaintances so they are called

Friends don't lose you to the dark

I used to daydream all day long

I couldn't even see what's before my eyes

All I have are these words I write

I write them because I could never fight
