“Fool’s Hope”

We’ve gone far and wide in other people’s shoes
We put em’ on and make em’ ours until they can’t get used
I know that most people wouldn’t do the same
Cuz’ pickin’ things up off the street can dirty up your name

Couldn’t even tell you how many times we’ve found
A beautiful pair of boots just waitin’ around
Most of us lack but got an earnest need
To make tracks out of step from the lead

Yeah we’re walking across town tonight
Yeah we’re walking across town until we get right

It’s about the money and it’s about the look
But it’s more about adventures and getting off the hook
We don’t fit into social norms
Holes and ashes that’s our uniform

If you can stop saying that you’re better
We’ll stop thinking that we’re worse
But nothing stays the same, and nothings’ forever
Just for right now: “first things’ first”

Yeah we’re walking across town tonight
Yeah we’re walking across town until we get right

Therz’ something ‘bout gettin’ by when you’ve been left high and dry
And nobody ‘round gives a fuck about you
It changes the way that you look at life
When you’ve been down and out a grippin’ on your knife
Man I can’t for get that, but it doesn’t matter
We’ve got something to do!
We’ve got fool’s hope and therz something left to do

Yeah we’re walking across town tonight
Yeah we’re walking across town until we get right

All it takes is a flmae to see that twinkle in your eye
Speak your name and save your lies
All you need is a bag and a little place to hide
T’moro comes and then we can get a ride...

We don’t have much but we share what we’ve got
Gather it up and throw it in the pot
Yeah we’re looking for our own kind of rights of passage
Dosn’t matter if you’re young, drunk, or a bastard

We’re walking through town
Until we get right
We’ve got fool’s hope
