Lyrics Hope Springs Eternal - Serenata

Hope Springs Eternal

I. Kensa
I’m going all the way, make it the most out of faith
The ride may take me to a fragmentary place
Where the darkest alleys converge with a broken glass world
Like a bright kaleidoscopic swirl
We cut ourselves deep, swear to make it bleed together
Wounds shall heal but there’s scars beneath forever
Heart strings burned and snipped to free the tether
You’re the only girl I’ve let inside my abandoned theatre
A dusty section of my subconscious
Where all the darkest corners and the skeletons are hauntin
The ghosts of the past, the guilt of the conscience
Damn it, I would show it all to you altogether
Intoxicated with the delusion of a certain romance
You played the systematic heart to the perfect program
Decoded all that’s left with nothing else to learn
I was your favourite but I’m just another bridge to burn
I see the agony and hell inside your eyes
Blind from the light of heaven, punished by the devil
But it was your hand that pulled me back to the circle
When I thought that I was falling then, hope springs eternal
Child of the moon, I ascend upon you
As an aspiring astronaut of the next Apollo mission
The phoenix resurrected on a modern-day mythology
I’m going past the Luna all the way to Aphrodite

Soupherb
Complete, already winning in life
Then he met her, felt incomplete for the first time
Wrote his first rhyme since the freshman days
Thought it would be sweet and have her amazed
A heart’s race with no finish line
Never mind if he falls behind
Haven’t been the kind to reach with his punchlines
Oftentimes, he landing none
Good lord, his struggle has begun
Now, setting up anything to keep her around
To the point of rolling with her just to buy takeouts
Locked in now for every second can make a difference
Especially he’s longing for something more than her presence
Always lost in her eyes and smiles
Her hypnotic voice, he has no choice
But to have that in his life and hopefully forever
It’s only been days but man, whatever
Hook (Both):
Oh he knows he can’t control
Feelings and screams of his soul
He does not know how long he’ll hold
Oh he’s wishing that she won’t go
Outro:
The phoenix resurrected on a modern-day mythology
I’m going past the Luna all the way to Aphrodite
In his life and hopefully forever
It’s only been days but man, whatever
Complete!
