You Can Only Hope Its True

from Complicated Animals by Casbien Barr

/

lyrics

if that's what your like when your heart is in it
then i don't wanna know what your like without it
cuz you get out
what you put in
you can stand your ground
and you can try deny it
you can talk all you want
you can justify it
but its paper thin
sure wafer thin
like a dog with a bone but you seen another
and you wouldn't want to miss out on nothing
don't lose them both
don''t lose them both
ah, you better find out just what you need
before it takes you down and makes you repeat
those same mistakes,
those old mistakes

all this over analysing
losing all your sleep

all the things you should have done
and all the things you never do
they're the things that get ya
they're the things that get to you
and yes your told your special
that you'll get there in the end
well you can only hope its
you can only hope its true
close your eyes and hope its true

so the lesson is learnt without a teacher
and before its passed seems it might be easier
though its a dangerous game
so before you play you know its all our nothing
if you don't then today you gonna learn something
if its meant to be
gotta make it be
cuz no star will align to be your guide
and there ain't no god that's on your side
and you wont get help
till you help yourself
and you wonder why you sabotage yourself
because your not self aware
and that's hard as hell
yeah its inside what your looking for

all this needless self embalming
losing all your sleep

all the things you should have done
and all the things you never do
they're the things that get ya
they're the things that get to you
and your told your special
that you'll get there in the end
well you can only hope its
you can only hope its true
close your eyes and hope its true
You can only hope

all the things you should have done
and all the things you never do
they're the things that get ya
they're the things that get to you
and your told your special
that you'll get there in the end
well you can only hope its
you can only hope its true
close your eyes and hope its true
hold your ears and hope its true
hold your breath and hope its true
