"hopeful nothing"

"hopeful nothing"

your modesty is just

like your honesty

just another falsie

pretendful liar

but the truth

doesn't rome you

hateful implyier

but the words

don't own you

trusting selfishness

i feel i don't know you



at all, ... at all

heres my knock

i'm turning away

just liked you did

i'm learning how play

heres my clock

i'm no longer wasting time

cause just like you

i'm running away

just like you

i'm burning my days



all these bridges that you flame

who do you expect to rebuild them

when you set fire to each turn

do you know

do you realize

will you learn

that each time you cry wolf

we grow apart

and my merit for love

loses each one earned

jackal tactics

your eating my heart

mixed semantics

i feel i don't know you



at all, ... at all

heres my knock

i'm turning away

just liked you did

i'm learning to play

heres my clock

i'm no longer wasting time

cause just like you

i'm running away

just like you

i'm burning my days



its either hope for the best

or hope for the worst

but your stuck on hopeful nothings

when neither come first

you cheating me was me cheating death

cause like a blessed curse

i'm glad nothings next

tomorrows gone

and your still here

grab your words

and complete my fears

when somehting goes wrong

my heart won't be near

you promise to hold on

i promise to let go

so take one step closer to the edge

will i save you, lets bet no



at all, ... at all

heres my knock

i'm turning away

just liked you did

i'm learning to play

heres my clock

i'm no longer wasting time

cause just like you

i'm running away

just like you

i'm burning my days



last but all forgotten

i've cleared my soul

i'm in parts now

but the closet i've been to whole

systmatic impurities

your a well oiled machine

your work ethics amaze me

but your far from clean

this door is close

please do not disturb

theres room for you outside

next to the trash on the curb





at all, ... at all

heres my knock

i'm turning away

just liked you did

i'm learning to play

heres my clock

i'm no longer wasting time

cause just like you

i'm running away

just like you

i'm burning my days
