lyrics

I always shielded the little hope
I'd turn into somebody soon
We drove hopeful to the city
But it was clear there was no room
The military of opinions
Left bootprints on my soft grass
The days turned their faces away
Like billboards that we passed

Could my faith fall
Did I let my faith fall

In the dusk my little mirror words
Bent weak like playing cards
My love crying pulled away
From my driveway arms
I told her I'm so close to making it
But when she said goodbye I knew
Cause if I could I swear I would have left me too

Could my faith fall
Did I let my faith fall

I lingered outside in the blue
A jetstream gleamed like the seam of the sky
And we could fold it a hundred different ways
Like your hands would fold round mine
We bathed in lakes of mattresses
And I believed in you
How I used to turn in my sleep
When I had someone to turn into

Could my faith fall
Should I let my faith fall

I always shielded the little hope
Someday I'd turn into someone
Maybe I was sleeping all along
Maybe my dreaming's done
I always thought somebody here
Might need my songs
But I couldn’t tell you now
If I believe in that at all
