Oh hope, where have you gone?
and will you ever come back to me completely?
All the holes that I bled from
forcing everyone around my heart to leave me.
I could tell
that there was nothing left for us
when you turned, oh you turned your back.
But in the arms of another,
you were crying under the covers
for a way to escape, to escape.
Oh god where have I gone?
And will I ever get the ones I tell to believe me?
All the things I have done
to keep those around from learning to read me.
I could tell
that there was nothing left for us
when you turned, oh you turned your back.
But in the arms of another,
you were crying under the covers
for a way to escape, to escape.
So I guess I'm pressing on without you.
I hope it goes the way I want to.
Nothing ever seems like it does.
And I don't believe a single word I say.
(don't believe a single word I say)
I could tell
that there was nothing left for us
when you turned, oh you turned your back.
But in the arms of another,
you were crying under the covers
for a way to escape, to escape.
