A Little Hope Lyrics

The check was dated for when

Things finally turn out right

But by that time the account went dry and

They killed the water and the lights

When the best you can do

Is also the least

You never had a plan to win

Just hoped to avoid defeat

The hill I chose to die on

Was seized by eminent domain

It hurt the first time

Of course it hurts again

Again

So no more desperation

For desperation's sake

Desperation sells

But it doesn't pay

Of course we're getting tired

Of course that's what they want

If I wasn't so worn from 9-5

I would have stayed and fought

We know the house always wins

Walk away with what you have

It was time to put it all on red

Of course the wheel was gaffed

Then wake with a hangover

And silverware in your back

It won't fix the things we broke

But we can have a little hope

We can have a little hope

A little hope is all we know

We can have a little hope

We can have a little hope
