Little Hope

I wish that I could talk to you about last night.
I haven't felt that happy in the longest time.
I wish that you were here to talk me down,
When I say I know that Happy only teases me.
He doesn't stick around.

I wish that I could tell you how surprising I'm,
Finding things to be now that I'm smiling.
But every time I smile, it gets you down.
This is fleeting. You'll be leaving.
Just like Happy, no, he doesn't stick around.

But,
He comes when it's quiet.
Little Hope.
On my tongue and feeling up my bones,
Then lays in the dark,
Where it grows.
There's so much I didn't know and,
I'm ten years older than I was,
Only just a year ago now.

(Instrumental)

I should feel young but I feel old.
My body's something I've outgrown.
I only feel her when he holds me.
But everybody leaves so what's the point in hanging on?
I'm too hard to please, but see, we knew that all along.
Happy's such a tease. Soon he'll be gone.

For now,
He comes when it's quiet.
Little Hope.
On my tongue and feeling up my bones,
Then lays in the dark,
Where it grows.
Theres so much I didn't know and
I'm ten years older than I was.
I'm so much older than I was,
Only just a year ago,
Now.
