I Am The Hope

[Verse 1] Somewhere in the Sea, It’s the night, it’s the cold. Water stretches endless, As the story unfolds. Some float on fragile rafts, Others lost in the tide. No help is ever in sight— You cling to me to survive… [Verse 2] Somewhere in the Sky, A plane bound for home. But something is different, A silence has grown. Buildings rush to meet you, You see what comes to pass. Yet you wish it would change, Still you hold to me, steadfast… [Chorus] I am nothing, Not even a promise. I am the last thing you’ll ever hold. You won’t let me go. Whoever lets me slip is lost, I am your Hope. [Verse 3] Somewhere ashore, There’s no rest, no sleep. Drones cry overhead, And the ruins run deep. She digs through burning ash, Her ears ring with her cries. But she hears what’s no longer there, And clings to me as she tries… [Bridge] Healing hearts that need repair, Optimistic thoughts we share. Perseverance through the night, Endless faith in morning’s light. (Hope) Lonely days drift slowly by, Empty promises and lies. Shattered dreams fall to dust, Silence where there once was trust. (Less) Nothing ever truly lasts, Everything will turn to ash. Shadows creep and darkness falls, Surrender to the final calls. (Ness) [Chorus] I am nothing, Not even a promise. I am the last thing you’ll ever hold. You won’t let me go. Whoever lets me slip is lost, I am your Hope. [Outro] Hope… less… Hope… Less… Ness…
