Hope Where Have You Gone? Fleurie

[Verse 1]
Hope, where have you gone?
I've been running far
'Cross ocean landscapes
Sailin' out past the coastguard

[Verse 2]
Hope, where are you now?
Just when I needed you
You left me for a crown
Left me for a jewel
Left me for a crowded room

[Chorus 1]
So I'll stare that big black horse in the mouth
And tell him all I've wanted to say
Show him the box of all my doubts
Things hidden away
That I'm scared, and alone, and undone
I am tearing apart at the seams

[Verse 3]
Feel my threadbare skin
Worn from winter wind
Weathered by the rain
And temporary moments
Leaving permanent stains
