Ethan Johns - No Hope lyrics

Oh I could bore you with the truth About an uneventful youth Or you could get that rap from someone else And I could make an observation If you want the voice of a generation But I'm too self absorbed to give it clout [Pre-Chorus] And I, I don't really care about Anybody else when I haven't got my own life figured out Cause when you're young and bored and 24 And you don't know who you are no more [Chorus] There's no hope And it's hard to come of age I think it's a problem Does it ever go away? I know, I am so self-obsessed I guess, but there's no hope And I hope it's just a phase I'll outgrow-oh-oh-oh Oh I could look for inspiration Find it in the charm of an english nation But wouldn't that be cheap and ill-informed And I could bet you don't believe me If I said it came from deep within me But I promise you I'm telling you the truth [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] Well I wish that I was comfortable in my own skin But the whole thing feels like an exercise And trying to be someone I would rather not be I tried to second guess if you would be approving I find my life ever so moving King, wide-eyed and una**uming, hope There is no hope, but there's desperately No hope and there's definitely No hope if you don't believe me Oh, oh, oh And there is no hope and there's desperately No hope, and there's definitely No hope if you don't believe me Oh, oh, oh [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] There is no hope I know it's a problem Does it ever go away? I know, I am so self-obsessed I guess, but there's no hope And I hope it's just a phase I'll outgrow, oh, oh, oh
