From the recording All I Want Is Hope and Nothing More
Lyrics
I feel my whole life turning on a field of restless burning desire
I’m on fire
Those sleepless nights I’m dreaming I drift in and out of a burnt out mind
What do I find?
I don’t really care what Wordsworth said
But Tintern is a lonely scape I dread
Yesterday may be all that I know
Tomorrow is a dream of something more
I don’t know what to say
I fight with every day
All I want is hope and nothing more
I feel so tired and wasted all torn and knotted up inside
I try to hide
But still my heart keeps pounding and I never really seem to know why
I lose time
I don’t really care what Coleridge said
But I fear I shot the albatross dead
Yesterday may be all that I know
Tomorrow is a dream of something more
I don’t know what to say
I fight with every day
All I want is hope and nothing more
I don’t really care what Byron said
But Manfred’s is a path I dare to tread
Yesterday may be more than what I know
Tomorrow is a dream I won’t let go
I throw my heart away
And scream out every day
All I want is hope and nothing more
