lyrics

please let me hopeless
please let me hopeless

drenched in what is happening
a flood of potential
i’ll step over many fading fortunes to forage for the feeling
happy to hang around on the hook of the moment
not the here
not the whereafter
the exactly nothing else
a whisper of interference between the senses
the time it takes for a nerve to a convey what i assume is now
is a lie is a yesterday is a maybe
i need more accurate equipment to measure my being
something with out any moving parts
i need to be close to other people without breaking hearts
a mirror of unparalleled dimensions

please let me hopeless
please let me hopeless

go home and go to bed
there’s nothing here for us
a big slice of nothing for two to share
with sauce on the side made from nowhere
the tragic drama of joy
please let me be hopeless
please give me more nothing
i can deal with that
it’s the anything that i choke on
gets caught in the craw
gets stuck in the teeth
and stops me breathing
all those impossible futures
weighing me down like a tonne of feathers

please let me hopeless
please let me hopeless

just happy to hang around on the hook of the moment
not the here not the whereafter
the exactly nothing else
