lyrics

Standing on the sidewalk of my childhood home
I’m all alone and all I see is smoke
I’ve narrowly escaped the flames
And I hear my mother calling out my name

So I reach out a hand to save
But I just get burned again and again
And as the flames grow and the house implodes
And I’m standing on the sidewalk
All alone, and I lose hope

yeah, I lose hope

hoping that I could be good enough
to broker a deal
That would heal the rift between us,
that would mend and would heal

But as I lose hope, I start to relax
No longer trying to do the perfect thing
That will win your love and bring you back

Hope holds me captive, doesn’t allow me to grieve
Holding onto threads doesn’t let me give up, doesn’t let you sleep
But as I let go, I feel the relief
I’ve never been so happy to sink into grief
And I lose hope

And I see my son and daughter, and how much the need me now
How I can give them what I didn’t get, and love them better somehow
And I can break this cycle, I can cut it off at the root
No longer in and out, like the tides pull from the moon

And I have hope
