Rose Hope

from Young Crow by Hearts Like Hell

lyrics

So forgive me if I hammer my keys in frustration.
Aesthetics dilute and confound concentration.
The ceiling, like glass, breaks and shatters my vision.
Some days even my lungs stutter from indecision.
There lies my hope, steeped high in antiquity.
Scarify my throat with the flame of audacity.
Never ask the world of a man on a ledge.

If there's a promise here, it's that there's always fear.
All the hurt that's put aside. Impossible to tell inside.
Labyrinthine consequence, will never speak if never meant
Can volition be mistook, if everyones indifferent?
Wings that beat out gravity, don't think in terms of what is free.
The price is irrelevant, when everything is overspent.
Feeling from nothing, there has got to be something.
Bravery's not who has stayed, it's being the only one to know
you're afraid.

And just the other night a bird walked across my pillow,
searching for one remaining, place to sing...into my ears
I laid down my head, in a place all too familiar, to that recently-dried riverbed.
And scratching the surface of the ground, I knew life flowed here once
between my fingers; now heavy to lift, but life will come again.
Over and under my senses, where:
To the east is the waterfall.
To the west is the sunset.
To the north is the light.
To the south is the regret.
A bed of rose hope grows ankle high, every time you can't help cry.
But even fighting back the tears, is something worth a try.
I've been there too; scratching at the concrete past until my fingers bled.
Although it may be no solace to hold my hand, assure me
I will walk with you into the blankness and nothingness ahead;
if that may be, and you will never be alone. I will never be alone.
We will walk one step ahead of the loneliness we only wish, in these times, we could find hope in.

One more time (Trust me)
One more night ( the morning
One more breath (will be there)
One more try ( when you wake up.)
