lyrics

I've been spending time thinking bout the time
I spend on things that I despise
And all the sleepless nights, ambition cast aside
For TV and wishing and dreaming
But I'm still waiting on a sign, like I believe in something
Like something believes in me
But waiting is too easy, and wishing is too easy
And nothing that is easy will free me

And this is where I turn around
And make my way back to reckless and naive
I refuse to listen to the sound
The future is loud but my friends are with me now
Now will last a while, I used to never smile
show my teeth, or be open to change
But all of my friends are with me now
I may lose my way you know I've already lost it today

Just to be clear I admit to all of my crimes
You know I've been a fool too many times
When a hopeless romantic finds love
well, he's bound to start looking in places
he's not gonna find hope at all
I'm always gonna fall
It's not so hopeless after all

Thanks for all your patience, you know that I've been trying so hard
not to hide my heart
But I got colder, cynical and older
And the world got small and dark since I wrote it

Just to be clear, you're the victim in all my crimes
You know I've given up too many times
When a hopeless romantic finds love
Well, he's bound to start looking in places he's not gonna find hope at all
I'm always gonna fall
It's not so hopeless after all

I was a kid with a broken brain, singing well I guess it's not so hopeless
Begging please, let it work that way
and give a little light when it feels so hopeless
I killed a few years in the basement
Singing that I found my calling and it's not so hopeless
Night after night, dream about dying
Step up to the mic and it's not so hopeless
You fell out of love, I was moving on
We opened up the floodgates, not so hopeless
We can keep changing, turn a new page
But the song's still the same, and it's not so hopeless

Killed a few years in the basement singing
Well, I guess it's not so hopeless
Night after night I would dream about ending it
Well, I guess it's not so hopeless
You fell out of love, I was moving on
Well, I guess it's not so hopeless
We can keep changing, turn a new page
Well, I guess it's not so hopeless
