I have hope, when my neck hangs from the tight rope
Hope to be set free from my bonds, and the limits from which my heart consumes me
I have no grasp, on which the hope I use to have it only drifts in the wind
For I lost my grasp on you, but still I have found hope to carry on but I will not lose you
My mentality cannot expand; I don’t know how I went wrong as I sit here with another
Expansion and moving away from you, seems impossible when you’re all I see when my eyes are closed
Patiently I wait for you, though I know you are not waiting or wanting me
Though the span of this time is killing me, as I watch her love you like she should and you do the same
You being happy is all I need, but something tells me it’s going to end bad it’s going to die
Happiness never lasts, but I want it to last for you deserve it more than anyone you truly do
I sit on the sidelines watching, trying to put on a smile for the crowd so they think I’m okay
Observing and pushing my emotions aside, looking upon you two and leave my heart behind
You deserve happiness, and I’m trying to keep in line. Someone make sure I don’t slip or my emotions may recombine.
One two three, take another breath. Four five six, step away from my death. On these final steps
Somehow teach myself to cope. Stick that landing and hold my head high when my heart's not and
Don’t forget
Have hope
