No story about this one, just young agonizing hope for continuity between what is hoped for and what is lived.
Hard To Hope
1994
Jacinta Whitcome
In fate I may have no belief but it is decidedly so
That chance would be contradictory to everything I think I know
What do you do with those monkeys hanging on your back?
What do you do when you find out the hard way that your heart lacks?
Discretion
It is a shame one would have to learn how to love less
When you’re so used to all or nothing and your never satisfied with your best
But how could you know you never see what’s going on until
You look up and everyone is gone but you still tying your shoe
Da da dum latdida etc…
Somewhere there’s got to be a happy medium
Between a bitter lonely life and this vicious, needy love
But for now I’ll care for you
Yes you take and I will give
And when you’re through, oh, you can
Head on down the road, you know,
‘cause we both have lessons we’ve got to live
In fate I try not to believe
your bound to get your little heart broke
Look at what it has done to me
It’s to hard to hope
