Hopeful
sky babies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How long is this road is it far are we there yet?
I know which way I have to go but I’m tired of walking and it’s raining
Chase the light, my phone company says the future’s looking bright
So find a hope and hold on for your life and try, try again
Make tracks when gravity attacks ‘cause the destination’s pre-ordained
I better keep on walking
Life’s a journey and I hate travelling
So I’m yearning for my time to come
Dreams come as quickly as they pass away
But I’m hopeful for a better day
We’ve spun an orbit around the Sun have I still made no progress?
Mishaps and a concentration lapse picked apart my confidence
So name the price but don’t sell me failure ‘cause that’s not very nice
The pressure mounts up on every side I’m starting to wish I’d never tried
No joke I’m really really losing hope
And it’s doing my head in worse than anything else
Life’s a rollercoaster and I’m stuck on the ride
Disorientated world goes flying by
Dreams turn upside down the plans we make for life
But I’m hopeful and I’ll always fight
Life’s a bitch it fucks you every chance it gets
In a cynical mind exacerbates
Dreams get blurry through these red burning eyes
But I’m hopeful dreams are realised




Dream slide in as quietly as they slide away
But I’m hopeful they will never fade
