Hopeful
Tear Garden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What if the demons are dying
But fighting as they fade
What if this last big battle
is a just shallow play
What waits on the other side
When the fear has gone away
Was it all for nothing
Will they stand there laughing
Will they see you naked
Where you gonna' hide x3

If you can see it coming
You better be prepared
Cast your faith on the wind
Thats blowing through your hair
Walk upon this fragile world
Like you're walking on air
It was all for something
They will see you laughing




They will see you naked
Nothing left to hide x3

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Tear Garden's "Hopeful" reflect the uncertainty and fear that often accompany the unknown. The song begins by presenting the possibility that the demons are dying and fighting as they fade away. This suggests a battle, something happening that we might not be completely aware of. It's possible that the last big battle is not as significant as it may seem as it could just be a facade, a shallow play. The second verse of the song presents a scenario for an afterlife, where fear has dissipated, but uncertainty still prevails. The lyrics then question whether the events happening on earth were all for nothing and whether it will be ridiculed in the afterlife.


The chorus reinforces the idea that it's better to be prepared for what's coming. We must cast our faith onto something that gives us strength, something intangible that will help us navigate a fragile world. We must walk confidently and with freedom, as if we're walking on air. The song concludes with an assurance that it was all for something and that we can find laughter and joy at the other end of our journey.
