༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ “Little hopes” was written from a place where healing, breakthroughs, or happy endings were never the point. It came from staying. I wrote this because depression does not feel loud to me. It feels like weight, stillness, and moving forward without direction. The words are intentionally restrained. No promises. No solutions. “Little hopes” does not mean hope in the usual sense. It speaks of the small, almost invisible things that don’t save you, but keep you from disappearing. Breathing. Enduring. Remaining. This song is not a light at the end of the tunnel. It is the small fire that stays, even when nothing changes. Sometimes you still want to scream something out, even when you don’t know what it is. ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ In the quiet weight of days Where nothing lifts and nothing breaks I learned how shadows stay Without ever needing names The ground is cold, the air is thin Each step measured from within By what was lost, what still survives In places hidden deep inside ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ I don’t search for miracles I don’t ask the dark to end I only listen for the sound Of something still refusing to bend ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ Little hopes Like steady hands Holding light where it barely stands Not loud enough to chase the night But strong enough to stay alight Little hopes They don’t pretend They don’t promise how this ends They simply wait They simply remain ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ There are moments I don’t move Not from fear, but from the truth That standing still can be a form Of strength when everything feels worn I’ve felt the silence press its weight Turn every hour into wait Yet even there, beneath it all Something stays, however small ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ No grand victory in sight No sudden shift, no clearing sky Just a pulse beneath the ground Still counting time, still holding sound ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ Little hopes Unseen, unheard Living in the space between words Not enough to call it light But enough to keep the dark in line Little hopes They don’t erase They don’t replace the weight you face They simply stay They simply remain ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ If strength is not the absence of pain But choosing not to disappear Then let this be the quiet proof That something fragile still stands here ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ Little hopes Like distant fire Burning low, but never tired Not here to save, not here to cope Just here to be Little hopes ༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻༺✧༻ And if tomorrow brings no change I will still carry what remains Not victory Not release Just the will To not retreat
