HOPE

And someone said its all been done,
all been done.
But I,
I haven't done you
I haven't done you the favor
of telling you.
I haven't done you the favor of telling you
that you shouldnt jump.
Jump to conclusions
On silhouettes of truth
amidst perverse fiction.
Cause it probably started with a conflict within
and we have it down as the first sin
and the irony, the not so funny irony
is that now we're allowed to be
Allowed to be rotten to the core.

And someone said its all been done,
been done before.
But i haven't,
I haven't done you the favor,
the favor of telling you
that you,
you shouldnt jump,
jump to conclusions about who I am
based on foundations and lipsticks and rouge
and contouring.
You see I love me, but I love you more
And I pull and tuck my truths away
in federal places
and investigating will get you nowhere.
And the irony, the not so funny irony,
is that I told you all I know.

And somone said,
someone said its all been done before we were born.
All been done before we were born
and they called it destiny.
And the irony, the not so funny irony,
is that its not always destiny,
if you know what I mean.
And it might be,
might,
be,
because we dont all believe in it.

And someone said
someone said its all been done before...
But you.
you haven't done me the courtesy
of telling me why.
Because men jumped to their deaths
and men jumped to action.

And some say it is a he
And some say a she
And some say we are both
God and man
Two things i hope to understand.
