"I Hope You're Wrong" lyrics

"I Hope You're Wrong"

Friend when you go
Hope you cure your disease
Pick up the pieces and dust off your jeans

And I'll hit the highway
You know it helps with the grief
And you go your way and take a part of me

And I hope you're wrong about destiny
Oh and how we are bound by rage and tragedy
Our shackles are strong and the road is steep
But when you are gone brother in song I'll hope you're wrong

Friend in your eyes
I know you've seen the worst in me
Kept all the secrets and helped me believe

Our live's a hymnal you know
It's sad and it's sweet
And I wrote the chorus you found the melody

And I hope you're wrong about destiny
Oh and how we are bound by rage and tragedy
Our shackles are strong and the road is steep
But when you are gone brother in song I'll hope you're wrong

And our hearts are golden
We're both broke as can be
Pawned our salvations for chemicals and grief

I'll bring the matchbook
You bring kerosene
We'll burn the pages and start over clean

And I hope you're wrong about destiny
Oh and how we are bound by rage and tragedy
Our shackles are strong and the road is steep
But when you are gone brother in song I'll hope you're wrong
But when you are gone brother in song I'll hope you're wrong
