Hope
Pig & Dan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I was a blind man who could only see
The light that shines from the heart of the sea
Don't blame me for falling back in love
If I was a joker would you riddle me sick
And send me to a dark abyss and put a hidden key right in front of my face
See I got Hope
Ya it's a melody
As I see Trash on the pavement I feel the rhythm of a Dove's Beating Wings

Ya I've got Hope
It's a melody
As I see Trash on the pavement, I feel the rhythm of a Dove's Beating Wings
And I sing
Maybe I'll climb a mountain today
Still the pain would be the same
You see a view just distracts a bleeding heart
Maybe I've been alone too long singing the same old desperate songs
To just have to write some for God
And I've got Hope
It's a Remedy
As I see Trash on the pavement I feel the rhythm of a Dove's Beating Wings
Ya I've got Hope
It's a Melody
As I see Trash on the pavement I feel the rhythm of a Dove's Beating Wings
And I sing
Some stay cruel and choose to stay blind
In a world drenched in lies
Still Love is Kind
It's always time to break the ice
Freedom from the coldest vice
After all, we are one nation of God, ya
And I've got Hope
It's a Remedy
As I see Trash on the pavement I feel the rhythm of a Dove's Beating Wings
Ya I've got Hope
It's a melody
As I see Trash on the pavement I feel the rhythm of a Dove's Beating Wings
And I sing
Ya Maybe I'll climb a mountain today
Still the pain would be the same
You see a view just distracts a bleeding heart

You see a view just distracts a bleeding heart
You see a view just distracts a bleeding heart

Line by Line Meaning

If I was a blind man who could only see
If I were unable to perceive things with my eyes, but could only sense the inner light that emanates from the depths of the sea

The light that shines from the heart of the sea
The radiant glow originating from the very core of the ocean

Don't blame me for falling back in love
Please do not hold me responsible for rekindling my affection

If I was a joker would you riddle me sick
If I were a playful trickster, would you torment me with enigmas and challenges

And send me to a dark abyss and put a hidden key right in front of my face
And hurl me into a realm of darkness, while cleverly placing a concealed solution just within my reach

See I got Hope
Observe, I possess a profound sense of optimism

Ya it's a melody
Yes, it is a harmonious arrangement

As I see Trash on the pavement I feel the rhythm of a Dove's Beating Wings
When I witness litter scattered on the roadside, I perceive the rhythmic pattern resembling the flapping wings of a peaceful dove

And I sing
And I express myself through song

Maybe I'll climb a mountain today
Perhaps I will embark on a journey to scale a tall peak in the present day

Still the pain would be the same
However, the distressing sensations would remain unchanged

You see a view just distracts a bleeding heart
Perceiving a scenic panorama only serves as a temporary diversion for a sorrowful soul

Maybe I've been alone too long singing the same old desperate songs
Possibly, I have endured prolonged solitude, singing repetitious melodies filled with despair

To just have to write some for God
Merely to feel compelled to create new compositions dedicated to a higher power

Some stay cruel and choose to stay blind
Certain individuals opt to be unkind and willingly remain oblivious

In a world drenched in lies
In a deceptive world, saturated with falsehoods

Still Love is Kind
Nevertheless, love possesses a gentle and compassionate nature

It's always time to break the ice
The opportune moment to overcome barriers and establish connections is ever-present

Freedom from the coldest vice
Attaining liberation from the cruelest of habits

After all, we are one nation of God, ya
Ultimately, we are a unified collective belonging to a divine entity

And I've got Hope
And I possess an unwavering faith in a positive future

And I sing
And I vocalize my emotions through melodic expression

You see a view just distracts a bleeding heart
Observing a picturesque scene merely serves as a temporary diversion for a heart filled with emotional pain
