City And Colour - Hope for now lyrics

rate me

This hallway's dark and empty

Just miles and miles of endless road

I've got a sickness pounding in my head

I'm at the mercy of the ghosts

But what it would take to live

As if I would not another day

To live without despair

And to be without desdain

How can I instill such hope

But be left with none of my own?

What if I could sing

Just one song

And it might save somebody's life

I saw it after

Have the reasons to stay

I was lost

I was lost

Then the sky turned black

And the rain's poured down

I was waiting

Waiting to be found

Oh, no

How can I instill such hope

But be left with none of my own?

What if I could sing

Just one song

And it might save somebody's life

There I would sing

All that I can say

Because that is when

When I feel that I'm not just counting time

Oh, and I sing

All that I can say

Maybe just for the moment

Things would seem alright

Oh, and I sing x 4
