Hopelessly Lyrics - Rose Mulet

Years 

They've past me by like thorns 

Digging deep and feeding sores 

Sorrow behind closed doors 

But that's not me anymore 

In a fight for who I am 

Can't convey what I understand 

But now I stand tall 

Can't compete with those who won't fall 

It's been hard 

All my life 

Watching stars 

Fade to dark 

My god 

Slaving nights 

At a desk 

Watching peers 

Coalesce 

My heart 

Goes out 

To the ones 

Having fun 

While I fight 

This war 

with myself 

Aspirations of a future 

Suffocation of approval 

What a bore! 

Success and achievement are my goals and my weakness 

I'm tired 

But that won't shake me from my ambitions! 

Please know 

No subscription to your feelings or opinions 

Drive your own path 

But don't impede upon my vision 

It's falling through your eyes 

This pain you can't disguise 

Even though you try so hopelessly 

Your truths will fade to lies 

It's hunger I despise 

I will never try hopelessly 

My anguish is your pride 

But I will not comply 

Every time you try it's hopelessly 

Ambitions always tried 

You'll see it in my eyes 

And you'll find you've tried so hopelessly 

Pain has taken its fair course 

Days filled with lost remorse 

In passing shall it stay 

For form of who I am today 

Facades ablaze 

Here for all to see 

Unveiled, every part of me 

The sea of my repressions shies 

From all your lies 

Entanglement of meaning I comprise 

I shy from no one's eyes 

[Chorus] x 2
