Lyrics: Carlos Andra

[Verse 1]
I’m a boy, feeling so disgraceful
Love’s a force that’s unavoidable
I’m jobless, drowning in this pain
High hopes are debts I can’t sustain
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You could throw me that stink-eye
Forget my birthday, let it slide
Cuss my ancestors, curse my name
And I’d still look your way the same
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You move in slow-mo
Like a shimmering rainbow
They say love is dead, that’s what they said
But you make me believe instead
[Chorus]
Hope
Can’t live without it
A half-dead boy like me wouldn’t even exist
Without the light of hope to persist
[Verse 2]
Lying in bed, still feels so sweet
Lonely moments, yet incomplete
I keep on dreaming, but it’s all so clear
This empty room just whispers you’re near
[Chorus]
Just want a taste of your affection
Blinded by how you say my name, that connection
And now, love arrives, unexpected, untamed
A feeling so pure, nothing feels the same
[Outro]
So I'll hold on, let this moment unfold
Through the pain, through the cold
Hope’s the fire that keeps me whole
And with you, love’s a story yet to be told.
