Don't Make Me Hopeful - Josh Krajcik

You can train yourself to worry

Cold and sleeping in a car

You can burst for the cup of glory

All alone in the world, in a bar

I got numbers in my pocket

But I’ve lost so many more

Ther’s one I’d give the whole wide world

Just to have again

That I’m not allowed to call

Don’t make me hopeful

Don’t even start

I’d rather go hungry

I’d rather starve

I might wake up and find it easy

Maybe that would be a curse

There’s a line I like to walk upon

Out in the road

All alone on that line in riverse

Why the hell do I do this

I just get winded when I fall

But I’m sure that there’s a light in me

Puts me ahead of the game

But still you never take my call

Don’t make me hopeful

Don’t even start

I’d rather go hungry

I’d rather starve

Don’t make me hopeful

Don’t show me the fire

You know I’d rather see nothing

Than see myself as a liar

Bridge

I was only trying to lift us cup

Instead I took everybody down

Ypu always promised that you’d wait

As long as it takes

Patiently, you’re still waiting now

Don’t make me hopeful

Don’t even start

I’d rather go hungry

I’d rather starve

Don’t make me hopeful

Like only you could

Still so long being hungry

To eat will be so good

It will be good
