High Hopes

High above me, hope swarms like flies
I am trying not to hide
Hide from them, hiding in my hell
I am trying to be someone else

All this noise just goes in one ear out the other and
Oh my god it's too much
All this sweat just drips out one pore and another and
Oh my god it's too much

We tried to keep an even score
But what even play the game for?
We tried to keep an even score
But no one's really even counting anymore
What even play the game for?

Do you have it in you to lie?
To tell yourself that you're gonna be fine
'Cause high above me, hope swarms like flies
I am trying not to hide
Hide from them, hiding in my hell
I am trying to be someone else

All the lights just blow out with one blink and another and
Oh my god it's too much
All the truth just hurts with one word and another and
Oh my god it's too much

I would believe the things you say
When you say them the sweetest ways
Fill holes in all my cavities
Can still taste you on my teeth

Do you have it in you to lie?
To tell yourself that you're gonna be fine
