Atmosphere - A Girl Named Hope lyrics

She abandoned me, left me out in the cold
No surprises, I guess that's how it goes
Sit's across from me, at a booth in this dive
I contemplate how much more I can survive
But I'm alive, so I should be content
Then tell why the hell my whole world is bent
I was sent to make
And frustrate the population
In-between the alcohol and the copulation
What you call it
If you build it I will break it
"What's wrong, how you doin'?" Nah
Save it
Gave it a fraction of all I had to give
I guess I hold a grudge
Cause you still got my rib
With your beautiful eyes, unscrupulous lies
Now watch the circus clown run
Around in circles and try
Seems like all I get to eat is hope
Girl, if we got along better we'd be dope

Four walls, they surround me
Loneliness, has found me

And for as much as I complain
I'm lovin' it
And I only mention it so that I can rub it in
Wake up to the sunlight, shake off last night
Check what's left and try to
Get the rest right
Decision, splitting, headache, lifting
Symptoms, matching, Mama was afraid of it
Knowledge of self ain't as evil
As they made it call it what you want
If you build it they will break it
The plain truth, there's no substitute
But sometimes she wears a disguise
(Yes she do)
A storyteller deals with life not hope
Girl, if we got along better we'd be dope

And that's the sound that a dog will make
When he's just been hit by a car
And that's the tone that
Hit's close to home
When the cocaine outlives the star
And that's the noise that disrupts the boys
When the cue ball smacks it's goal
And these are the words
That disturb your earth
When I walk away with your hope
Whispers Come on, let's go
