Burn Disco Burn - Hopeless lyrics

Johnny's dead and I can't breathe I take 'em so I can fall asleep I suffer the luxury of hope I'm walkin' the wire to reach the rope I'm getting it all down to her pink nails to her details I'm getting it all down to the bone You live on a street without a name You cut off your hair but you're still the same You kinda regret what you did but hey You can't get stuck in yesterday You're getting forgetful in you old age And blind rage You're getting forgetful but that's good Because hope is hope and I'm not you Thank god we've all got somewhere else to go So homesick for the place that's not really your home And you're lonely for a life you'll never know A decade of waiting by the stairs And watching the stars and they fell in pairs Took it for granted that I would stay I thought of an awful thing to say I'm getting over just to spite you Just to write you this song I hope you can hear me Because hope is hope and I'm not you Thank god we've all got somewhere else to go So homesick for the place that's not really your home And you're lonely for a life you'll never know There's a life you'll never know I'm getting better, wrote a letter And the name on someone's back I hope you can read it Under the flashing lights you thought Of all of the things that you are not Meanwhile on the other side I turn on my radio and cry But hope is hope and I'm not you Thank god we've all got somewhere else to go So homesick for the place that's not really your home And you're lonely for a life you'll never know There's a life you'll never know You're getting forgetful You're getting forgetful but that's good
