Lyrics

Chasing Hope

I’m so dead tired and wide awake
It’s something that’s become routine
It drags me down, rattles my chain
A symptom of a busted dream
that haunts around and steals my sleep

It’s not one thing it’s everything
donated to this blessed curse
Controls my mind to over think
and measure what the price is worth
Far too much it just don’t work
I gave my best and seen my worst

Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
down an endless road, carries a heavy load
Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
Should I leave it alone, go run and hide back home

Night after night, every night
waiting for a sign
Day after day, every day
no sign of my fate

Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
down an endless road, carries a heavy load
Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
Why can’t I leave it alone, go run and hide back home

Wired and tired and out of sync
a shell of what I used to be
The money’s gone, I’m on the brink
of standing somewhere in between
my former self and changing needs
I’ve had enough I need relief
I want so bad to set things free
To shake it loose from this pipe dream

Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
down an endless road, carries a heavy load
Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
Time to I leave it alone, go run and hide back home

Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
down an empty road, carries a heavy load
Hope, I’ve been chasing hope
Time to I leave it alone, go run and hide back home
