Hope
Mechanical Moth Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Welcome to reality
Where hope has no chance to be
And love will die at all
Finally hope will fall

Fading all light in me
Where love has no chance to be
And hope will die at all
Finally death will call

And with her grace gone
I´ve found the worst born
All love away
No more hope to stay
No hope left to see
Many dreams
But only one sets me free
Love´s never
What it seems to be
It seems to me
What it seems to be
It seems to me
Like...

Dreaming for a chance to see
For another end
Where my last hope
Falls to nowhere land
I´m fading away
Whispering slowly
Your word to stay

If you love to cry
Your tears made me blind
It's just a deaf lie
I feel the agony behind
But better to die




If you love to cry
It's just a deaf lie
