Into Hope
Maverick Sabre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So lost in myself I could not appreciate
All week stressed out
They cancel anyway
Now I walk through their lives
And hear their whispered tales
Falling into hope
Falling
And give me your heart so I can taste the way the raindrops fall
Give me the patience or the desperation
Put a mile between me and what I was before
And give me a burning in my eyes so I can hear you more
Give me the time
Give me the time
Beautiful thing
Does it hurt to smile
Nooses of Gin
And dreams of suicide
First flush of spring
Another love denied
Phone that doesn’t ring on a Friday night
Falling into hope
Falling into the uncontrolled
Falling
And give me your heart so I can taste the way the raindrops fall
Give me the patience or the desperation
Put a mile between me and what I was before
And give me a burning in my eyes so I can hear you more
Give me the time
Give me the time
Make me bleed
So I can heal for anyone
And I’m sorry for everything
I couldn’t feel when I was numb
And give me a burning deep within
And let the words be sung
Give me the time
Give me the time
The lyrics of "Into Hope" by Maverick Sabre explore themes of personal struggle, isolation, and the desire for emotional connection. The song begins with a sense of pessimism and resignation, as the singer expresses doubt that the sun will shine again and reflects on their own inability to appreciate the beauty around them. They feel overwhelmed and stressed, and even when they try to engage with others, they only hear whispered tales about their lives.
However, as the song progresses, there is a shift towards hope and a longing for emotional fulfillment. The chorus speaks of falling into hope and the uncontrolled nature of that process. The singer craves the depth and intensity of experience, asking for someone to give them their heart so they can taste the way raindrops fall. They yearn for patience or desperation, to distance themselves from their past selves and to have a burning passion in their eyes that allows them to hear others more clearly. The repeated plea for time emphasizes the need for patience and space to heal and grow.
The second verse introduces additional themes of pain, loss, and disappointment. The juxtaposition between a beautiful thing (perhaps referring to a smile) and the pain that lies beneath suggests that happiness can often be a facade. The references to "nooses of Gin" and "dreams of suicide" hint at the desperation and darkness that the singer has experienced. They mention another love being denied and a lack of connection, symbolized by a phone that doesn't ring on a Friday night.
The bridge of the song offers a sense of redemption and self-awareness. The singer asks to be made to bleed, metaphorically representing emotional vulnerability and the willingness to feel and heal for others. They express remorse for their previous emotional numbness and ask for a burning deep within, indicating a desire to be fully present in their emotions. The lyrics end with a plea for time once again, emphasizing the ongoing journey of growth and healing.

I don’t think the sun is coming back today
I am doubtful that happiness or positivity will return to my life
So lost in myself I could not appreciate
I was too consumed by my own problems to recognize and enjoy the good things around me
All week stressed out
Feeling overwhelmed and anxious throughout the entire week
They cancel anyway
Despite my stress, the plans or events I had been looking forward to end up being canceled or not happening
Now I walk through their lives
I observe and interact with other people's experiences and stories
And hear their whispered tales
Listening to their secrets, confessions, and personal stories
Falling into hope
Embracing the feeling of hopefulness and optimism
Falling into the uncontrolled
Allowing myself to surrender and let go of control
Falling
Descending into a new emotional state or mindset
And give me your heart so I can taste the way the raindrops fall
Share your innermost feelings with me so I can experience emotions and sensations in a raw and genuine way
Give me the patience or the desperation
Provide me with either the calmness and endurance to wait for better times, or the intense desire and urgency to change my situation
Put a mile between me and what I was before
Create distance and separation from the person I used to be and the negative aspects of my past
And give me a burning in my eyes so I can hear you more
Ignite a passionate and intense desire within me to truly understand and connect with you
Give me the time
Grant me the opportunity and space to grow and evolve
Beautiful thing, Does it hurt to smile
Is it painful to express happiness or find joy in life's beauty?
Nooses of Gin, And dreams of suicide
Escaping from pain and struggle through alcohol and the contemplation of ending one's life
First flush of spring, Another love denied
Experiencing the initial signs of new beginnings but ultimately having another opportunity for love taken away
Phone that doesn’t ring on a Friday night
Feeling lonely and rejected when nobody reaches out or calls on a weekend evening
Make me bleed, So I can heal for anyone
Allow me to experience pain and suffering, for it will enable me to empathize and provide solace for others
And I’m sorry for everything, I couldn’t feel when I was numb
Expressing remorse for my emotional detachment and inability to experience and connect with emotions in the past
And give me a burning deep within, And let the words be sung
Ignite a passionate fire within me and allow me to express my thoughts and emotions through the power of music
Give me the time, Give me the time
Provide me with the opportunity and patience to undergo personal growth and transformation

I hope you read this Maverick, I think this one of your masterworks. It's authentic, emotional and just pure art. Keep making music from the heart, we feel it and identify with it. It guides us through both rough and beautiful times. Thank you for your contribution to music and my life. All the best, Tom

I don't care about the views or how underrated Maverick is... All I care is that his music is timeless and that personally, it helped so much.
Michael Lipman
Had the pleasure of being in this video (I’ve got the glasses on) and having never heard Maverick before was absolutely blown away by him. Why is he not doing the new James Bond song?!! This is a ‘mindblowingly’ fantastic song!
Biz Ono
I'm very jealous of you rite now, in a nice way. I did have the pleasure of meeting his mum and dad when he played at Manchester Cathedral which was fantastic! He made me cry when I heard him live. Just stunningly beautiful!
Michael Lipman
Biz Ono he’s extremely talented and a lovely guy.
