"Hold Out Hope" lyrics

Can I say this?
Can I say that I'm afraid?
I'm scared of every single day
It's just the way it is
Yeah, life can so painful
You try you best just be grateful

Oh, you don't
No, you don't believe me any way
Oh, you don't
Oh, you don't believe a word I say

When you've learned the hardest lessons
And your counting of all your blessings
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come
When you try to put yourself first
But your life just goes from bad to worse
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come

I'm not ready, not ready to say hello
To the life we we used to know
I'm pessimistic if you want a full disclosure
Wake me up when it's all over

Oh, you don't
No, you don't believe me any way
Oh, you don't
Oh, you don't believe a word I say

When you've learned the hardest lessons
And your counting of all your blessings
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come
When you try to put yourself first
But your life just goes from bad to worse
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come...

When you've learned the hardest lessons
And your counting of all your blessings
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come
When you try to put yourself first
But your life just goes from bad to worse
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come
You gotta hold out hope cos better days will come...
