hope

it's another day -

the same, the same.

my mind's on repeat,

playing every memory.

some day i want to be

serenaded by the one i love;

some day i want to be

unrepentant of who i am.

i'm just a kid,

i'm only so small,

eighteen doesn't mean a thing,

it just means another day of being me.

i can cross my fingers,

i can make a wish,

but these pennies add up to cents,

and miracles don't come cheap.

some day i want to be

irrevocably in love;

some day i want to be

better than just simply me.

i can dream,

i have the time.

i'll add them up,

then change my mind.

i'm just a kid,

i'm only so small,

eighteen means nothing,

just the same old games we play.

i will make my wishes,

and add up to cents,

miracles don't come cheap,

but i can hope.
