High Hopes

from Sound Machine by Joel Willson

/

about

This is a song about making big decisions.

lyrics

Driving over these hills
Five miles closer to no where
I'm leaving my body behind
Too young to be satisfied

We've got high hopes
High hopes

Dropped off my sister
She quit her job last week
Mountains in the sky
Form a parade with no reply
To the endless questions that torment me

We've got high hopes
High hopes
We've got high hopes
High hopes

There's no turning around
No backing down from this

All the Christmas trees adorn your neck
All the planets are chanting
We're dancing on the precipice
Of something I don't understand
It's bittersweet because we need it
We're high!

Illumination damned
Embraced by mystery

We've got high hopes
High hopes
We've got high hopes
High hopes
