about

The first track Hope is a funky one, featuring some dirty clarinet work by Pete and the wonderfully funky sax solo by Chris Aiello!

lyrics

"Hope"
(Lyrics written by Jay Jersey (c)2012 ASCAP

I've been thinking ship is sinking
Thought that you should know
So befuddled
It's a struggle just to keep afloat
Is what you're craving
What we're saving
Just to be destroyed?
Why don't we face it
Just replace
Something we avoid

Its nothing tricky you know I'm picky
Call it what you will
First to admit
Last to quit
Until its overkill
To break the cycle's really vital
Guess I'm losing steam
There'll be another
I'll recover
Guess the grass is green
So green, so far away

All we have right now is Hope
All we want right now is Hope

Now that I'm walking
You ain't talking
Something we avoid
O, Whats the use
No excuse
Just to be annoyed
You expect it
Feel rejected
You already know
But stand corrected
Haven't left it
All we have is Hope

All we have right now is Hope
All we want right now is Hope
