Hope - Kid Dakota

Hope is a dangerous thing

When there is nothing to hope for

Bird with one broken wing

And the sky slamming shut like

An old door

But when I call you, you listen

And you try to talk me down

But these heights are my prison

And now I know how it feels

When you, y’are not around

Like the countryside after the war

Advertisements from boarded up stores

Like a stray dog that’s outside your door

Like a sail full of wind of a

Ship that’s been moored

Hope is a dangerous thing

When there is nothing to hope for

A cure for this empty feeling

A machine to fuse all these parts

In one whole

But when I call you, you listen

And you hear what I say

But I no, I no

Longer have to question

See the permit expired

And now there’s no hope
