"The Hope List" lyrics

Will all my songs reveal my pain?
It's such a shame, it's just a game
Will anyone still listen then?
It's such a game, I lose again

But now and then I
Oh now and then I listen

While I lie awake I
While I lie awake I
Let the bitterness in
I lie awake I
While I lie awake I
Let the bitterness in

It's not my view, then shame on you
It's just the way, oh such a crooked game
I hold out hope for everyone

While I lie awake I
While I lie awake I
Let the bitterness in
I lie awake I
While I lie awake I
Let the bitterness in

Watch me ride it out now
Instead I write it all down
This is me hopeless
Watch me ride it out now
Instead I write it all down
This is my, this is my hope list
