False Hope
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well is it still ok that I don't know how to be alone?
Would it be ok if I just came home tonight?
We share an apartment on the upper west side
And my worst problem is I don't sleep at night.
Woman downstairs, she's lost her mind
And I don't care how, sure don't care why
Why no false hope?
Why no false hope?
A storm hits the city and the lights go out before I can prepare
The whole downtown looks dark like no one lives there
We share an apartment on the upper west side
And my worst problem is I don't sleep at night
Woman downstairs just lost her mind
And I don't care how, sure don't care why
Why no false hope?
Why no false hope?
She'll be alright tomorrow
Neither of us is gonna sleep tonight so it'll come slow
I hear you begging through the wall
A dying animal's last call
Is it still okay that I don't know how to be at all?
There's a party uptown but I just don't feel like I belong at all
Do I?
We share an apartment on the upper west side
And my worst problem is I don't sleep at night
Woman downstairs, she's lost her mind
And I don't care how, I sure don't care why
Why no false hope?
Why no false hope?
