Dariynn Silver - Entry 9: Hope Lyrics

I'm at a limit for sadness I can take
I need a minute to settle in this place
Everywhere I go, I'm stuffing lies down my throat
Everything I know is lost in pessimistic noise

Holding out, I can see morning even when I've been blinded by day
Let my kingdoms fall and turn me to ashes
Hope is the last word to win anyway
I let it in

Throw me in fire and I'll walk right through it
I lost the pattern but trust in the unseen
I worry less about it, the calculated mind control
But, hope, I will hold to when I collapse and let it go

Holding out, I can see morning even when I've been blinded by day
Let my kingdoms fall and turn me to ashes
Hope is the last word to win anyway
I let it in

Let it in and out of my skin
