How hope keeps us afloat

I've walked these streets
It's time to shake myself from being asleep
But I can't find a way to see this out

Is this the best we can do?
A generation of impassionate youth?
No, we can't let ourselves down
How hope keeps us afloat
Maybe if we could stop daydreaming,
We could live the way we dream

So tragically
The quiet nights,
You see,
They're killing me
I can't be the one who misses out

I'm watching the day break,
In lieu of all the life you take

Is this the best we can do?
A generation of impassionate youth?
No, we can't let ourselves down
How hope keeps us afloat
Maybe if we could stop daydreaming,
We could live the way we dream

For all the time I spend
I'm finally glad I'm here
Because these days, this place-
Can mean so much if we can live right now
I'll
Learn

How hope keeps us afloat
