Lyrics Hope - James Bay

I'm somebody tryna live a good life
Tryna feel alright, tryna sleep at night
I'm somebody who gets it wrong
Who never stays long, who never says bye

Sometimes you gotta go it alone
Have a little hope

If I fall, if I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all, if I have to let it go
When my best feels like a joke
Still, I have a little hope

Tellin' lies, tellin' old wives tales
Like my mother said to make it feel better
Bent the truth 'cause I'm losing my mind
I've been dragging myself into Armageddon

But before that's all that I know
Have a little hope

If I fall, if I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all, if I have to let it go
When my best feels like a joke
Still, I have a little hope, ah-oh

When it's dark, when it's a world of lonely shadows
And in your heart, nothing's making sense
When you try and when you choke
Still, I have a little hope, oh yeah

Words get lost, get hard to hear
Good intentions disappear
Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope, mm

So much, too much going on
So much, too much started going wrong
Learning what I broke
Still, I have a little hope, oh yeah

If I fall (if I fall), if I have to learn to suffer
And lose it all (lose it all), if I have to let it go
When my best (when my best) feels like a joke (like a joke)
Still, I have a little hope (have a little hope), oh (have a little hope)

When it's dark (when it's dark), when it's a world of lonely shadows
And in your heart (in your heart), nothing's making sense
When you try (when you try), oh, and when you choke (when you choke)
Still, I have a little hope (have a little hope), whoa, yeah (have a little hope)

Words get lost, get hard to hear
Good intentions disappear (oh, disappear)
Hang on to that rope (to that rope)
Have a little hope (oh, have a little hope, oh, have a little hope)

So much, too much going on
So much, too much started going wrong
Oh, I'm learning, I'm learning what I broke
Still, I have a little hope

Hang on to that rope
Have a little hope
