It's The Hope That Kills You

Lips painted red

Easily led

Girl in the crowd

Scatter the lies

Bird from the sky

I fly down

Seal my fate

Get home late

Take me down

Held there for years

Senses dulled down

Wake me again

Hard to hold onto my hopefulness

'Cause it's the hope that kills you

Help me hold onto my hopefulness

'Cause all my hope lies with you

Into the night

Tired from the fight

Hold me near

Give me the sight

Pour all your light

Pure and clear

Blood red and warm

Bow to the form

Lose control

Hard to hold onto my hopefulness

'Cause it's the hope that kills you

Help me hold onto my hopefulness

'Cause all my hope lies with you

In dark rooms

I'm dancing

Bring your eyes

Come on home

Come on home

Come on home
