Hold on Hope Demo by Guided by Voices Lyrics

[Intro]
"Hold on Hope"

[Verse 1]
Every street is dark and folding out mysteriously
Well, that's the chance we take to be
Always working, reaching out for a hand that we can't see

[Refrain]
Everybody's gotta hold on hope
It's the last thing that's holding me

[Verse 2]
Invitation to the last dance, and then it's time to leave
But that's the price we pay when we deceive
One another, animal mother, she opens up for free

[Refrain]
Everybody's gotta hold on hope
It's the last thing that's holding me
[Bridge]
Look at the talkbox in mute frustration at the station
There hides the cowboy
His campfire flickering on the landscape

[Verse 3]
That nothing grows on, but time still goes on
Then through each laugh of misery

[Refrain]
Everybody's gotta hold on hope
It's the last thing that's holding me
Everybody's gotta hold on hope
It's the last thing that's holding me
