Hope
Superchick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I have crawled through those times, I learned to stand in the rain
And I learned to rise higher when the waves rose each time
And when there's nowhere to stand, I learned to swim towards the light
But when I fear I might drown, I lay my burdens down
'Cause I believe in hope
Believe if I let go I'll float
Living water carry me
Sometimes it feels like it's always hard times
And when it's all falling down, I try to hold up the sky
And the hard times seem harder when there's no end in sight
But know the hard times will pass, just as the sun's sure to rise
And when I fear I might drown, I lay my burdens down
When the dark is all you see
Light light light up with belief
Live your life each day you're down
Like you're found
Even through the darkest night
Reach reach out to find the light
Live your life each day you're down
Like you're found
"Hope" by Superchick is a song that describes one's journey through life, filled with both joy and pain. The song begins by acknowledging the presence of pain and hardship in life, but with time, one learns to stand in the rain, rise higher when the waves rise, and swim towards the light. When faced with difficulties, the singer learned to let go of their burdens and trust in hope to carry them through. The chorus of the song emphasizes the power of hope, as the singer believes that if they let go, they will float and be carried by the living water.
The second verse discusses the feeling that hard times seem to never end and that it's easy to feel like the weight of the world is on one's shoulders. However, the singer assures the listener that the hard times will pass, just like the sun rises each day. The importance of letting go and laying burdens down is reiterated as it allows for the possibility of being carried by hope.
Overall, "Hope" is a song that encourages the listener to hold onto hope, even in the darkest of times. The lyrics remind us that pain is just a part of life, but through it all, hope can carry us when we fear we might drown.
