Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm somebody tryna live a good life
Tryna feel alright
Tryna sleep at night
I'm somebody who gets it wrong
Who never stays long
Who never says bye
Sometimes you gotta go it alone
Have a little hope
[Chorus]
If I fall
If I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all
If I have to let it go
When my best
Feels like a joke
Still I have a little hope
[Verse 2]
Tellin' lies, tellin' old wives tales
Like my mother said to make it feel better
Bent the truth 'cause I'm losing my mind
I've been dragging myself into Armageddon
But before that's all that I know
Have a little hope
[Chorus]
If I fall
If I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all
If I have to let it go
When my best
Feels like a joke
Still I have a little hope
When it's dark
When it's a world of lonely shadows
And in your heart
Nothing's making sense
When you try
And when you choke
Still I have a little hope
[Bridge]
Words get lost, get hard to hear
Good intentions disappear
Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope
So much, too much going on
So much, too much started going wrong
Learning what I broke
Still I have a little hope
[Chorus]
If I fall
If I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all
If I have to let it go
When my best
Feels like a joke
Still I have a little hope
When it's dark
When it's a world of lonely shadows
And in your heart
Nothing's making sense
When you try
And when you choke
Still I have a little hope
[Verse 3]
Words get lost, get hard to hear
Good intentions disappear
Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope
So much, too much going on
So much, too much started going wrong
Oh, I'm learning, I'm learning what I broke
Still I have a little hope
[Outro]
Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope
