I Wrote a Song

Well I tried to write some words to some music I heard

Hopeful

Silence screeches across my window
Scarring my masked face
Endless reaches and rips my heart out
Leaving nothing in its place



Movement marches far from meekness
Washing me down stream
Where’s our river, where’s our ocean?
I’m lost inside your dream



I’m not sure if I am broken
Or what made me this way
Once upon a time you made me hopeful
Till hopeful lost its way



River rushes revealing reflections
But I don’t know my face
Aching fingers destroy the vision
Darkness, my friend and last embrace



I’m not sure if I am broken
Or what made me this way
Once upon a time you made me hopeful
Till hopeful lost its way



Sinking deeper beyond the waters
Dirt sinks in my skin
Don’t you see that hope is hopeless
We’re fighting for nothing



I’m not sure if I am broken
Or what made me this way
Once upon a time you made me hopeful
Till hopeful lost its way



I’m not sure if I am broken
Or what made me this way
Dig me from my grave and make me hopeful
Or kneel and mourn and pray
‘Cos hopeful lost her way
