Hope Is A Four Letter Word - ArlenaZara
They spell it out in Sunday school
And in the self-help books they sell
A little spark of magic
Meant to keep us from the hell
I held it like a lifeline
A fragile silver thread
Believing all the pretty lies
The hopeful people said
I hoped that you would stay here
I hoped you'd change your mind
I hoped that we could make it
The perfect, faded kind
But hope is just a setup
A trick of light and air
A four-letter word that leaves you drowning in despair
Cuz hope is a four-letter word that promises the moon
Then drops you in the darkness far too soon
It's a cruel, sweet whisper of a future that won't be
The worst illusion ever sold to you and me
It keeps you waiting by the phone that never, ever rings
Hope is just the falsest song
The human spirit sings
The morning I stopped hoping
Was the morning I could breathe
When I cut the fragile useless vine
I used to weave and reave
I stopped checking the window
Stopped listening for your car
Stopped wishing on a falling, solitary star
The weight of expectation
Was heavier than the grief
And letting go of hope brought a strange kind of relief
The world is sharp and real now
No filter, no soft lens
Just the broken, honest truth of how the story ends
Cuz hope is a four-letter word that promises the moon
Then drops you in the darkness far too soon
It's a cruel, sweet whisper of a future that won't be
The worst illusion ever sold to you and me
It keeps you waiting by the phone that never, ever rings
Hope is just the falsest song
The human spirit sings
Don't offer me your sympathy
Don't tell me to hold on
Don't tell me that the night is darkest just before the dawn
I'm done with all the platitudes, the empty, hopeful phrase
I'd rather live in honesty within this broken maze
Hope didn't save us then
And it won't save me now
I'll find my own survival
I'll manage it somehow
Cuz hope is a four-letter word that promises the moon
Then drops you in the darkness far too soon
It's a cruel, sweet whisper of a future that won't be
The worst illusion ever sold to you and me
It keeps you waiting by the phone that never, ever rings
Hope is just the falsest song
The human spirit sings
Hope is just a lie
A bitter heart goodbye
A four-letter word
That makes you cry
