Hope |
| A baby boomer’s lullaby |
| Came floating through my screen |
| On Channel 9, I wouldn’t be tuned in |
| If I went back home in Bendigo |
| My uncle Pete, he’s complaining about the greenies |
| He says that they gone too far |
| I say Pete they don’t grow far enough |
| I’m back in Melbourne, I’m not doing the best I can |
| On bad days I’m a parasite |
| On my good days, I say at least I tried |
| I’m getting asthma as I run for the train |
| Is it genetic or is it just harder to breathe these days |
| And it might be hopeless but if I lose hope |
| I bring on that nding |
| And it might be hopeless but if I los hope |
| I bring on that ending |
| And it might be hopeless but if I lose hope |
| I bring on that ending |
| And it might be hopeless but if I lose hope |
| I bring on that ending |
| (Instrumental Break) |
| I got myself so tangled that I can’t say a word |
| But I’m screaming in |
| My head short circuits every thought runs out |
| Before it can |
| Go anywhere, drive away |
| And let a dusty horizon |
| Break me from this cycle of inertia |
| I’m so furious at my trembling, idle hands |
| I’m ashamed of my own blood, of my breath |
| And I fear every step that I take on |
| The world keeps turning and it don’t |
| Give a damn about thoughts that I don’t say |
| A loud noise is building, it’s a dissonant |
| Chaos of words but it’s better than |
| Silence is drowning, tell me which way’s |
| The surface and I’ll swim for my life |
| And if I can’t hope, nothing’s ever gonna change |
| So let your eyes roll, you’ll still be cool |
| When we’re in flames |
| I could stockpile in the basement, be a ruthless |
| Survivor itching to prove that violence is our |
| Nature and society was fleeting and futile |
| Take the satisfaction when my cynical |
| Conclusions come to fruition |
| Will I win then, when everyone is as selfish |
| And careless as me? |
| And if I can’t hope, nothing’s ever gonna change |
| So let your eyes roll, you’ll still be cool |
| When we’re in flames |
| And if I can’t hope, nothing’s ever gonna change |
| So let your eyes roll, you’ll still be cool |
| When we’re in flames |
| And it might be hopeless but I’ve gotta try it |
| It’s better than lying down and bringing on |
| Our fate |
| And it might be hopeless but I’ve gotta try it |
| It’s better than lying down and bringing on |
| Our fate |
