Hope Lyrics

I awake from fitful sleep to the sound of my heartbeat

Another empty day of weary wandering awaits

My bones ache, and I curse fate for leaving me this way

Still, I haul my weakened frame up from the ground

I look around. The gloomy light illuminates the broken town

I've lost track of all the time I've spent

Searching for your ghost

I've forgotten how the music went

To all the songs we used to know

Oh, so long ago

Oh, so long ago

So I'll keep the rhythm with my feet

And hold on tight to hope

That I'm not walking here alone

Oh, please

Don't let me be alone

Wait

Is this the sign that I've been searching for?

The familiar smell of smoke

A single pair of dusty footprints

Stamped into the road

Is this the sign that I've been hoping for?

A small glimmer of hope

That I'm not walking here alone

Maybe I'm not walking here alone

Finally now, I think I know

Which way I should go

I'll follow those dusty footprints

Etched into the road

A lonely soul, marching on

Could be friend or foe

But if I don't go

I'll never know
