hope is big

happy birthday black sun of my cancerous blood

will you please feed me my tube

so many oceans to swim but i lost my will to swim

hope is big but they're always gonna win

i felt a cool breeze on my invalid knees

it reminded me of our kiss in the summer

vicarious like my grandmothers kiss at christmas

hope is big

but they're always gonna win

hope is big

ho-o-ope

it's so big

hope is big

ho-o-ope

it's so big

yeah

they're always gonna win

all the ashes were red

the firetrucks lost in it

a tombstone flickered on the fourth of july

janitor keys jingle jangle the loneliest tune

hope is big but we're always gonna lose

now you're up and you're out of your impervious doubt

and your love

it won't bring us the truth

and i hear rats in moonlight tangled up in a fight

hope is big but they're always gonna win

hope is big

ho-o-ope

it's so big

hope is big

ho-o-ope

it's so big

yeah they're always gonna win

hope is big

ho-o-ope

it's so big

hope is big

ho-o-ope

it's so big

yeah they're always gonna win
