lyrics

"I miss you" is an understatement if there ever was one and it's the most important and meaningless thing I can say to you at this point. Honesty comes in trials and being self sentenced to exile from you was the only thing I could do. They say that getting over it is the way to go, but how can I get over what I can't get through or under, let alone accepting being alone? You were just a heartbreak waiting to happen, and if I could just go back in time and tell myself that night that I fell for you that I should've just stayed home, maybe things would be fine now, but I know....

I know you didn't want to lock me up or make me walk the tightrope, but you know where you left me and I know where you went to. And if I came to your door I know i'd get nothing more than a "hello, how are you?"

I fell in love with you at the wrong time, and nothing seemed right when I finally told you everything that was on my mind. Your smile is still the most enticing thing I've ever seen and it's the most important thing he needs to keep.

I know you didn't want to lock me up or make me walk the tightrope, but you know where you left me and I know where you went to. And if I came to your door I know i'd get nothing more than a "hello, how are you?"

And i'm not mad, because I know you're happy, I'm just sad because I'm left here empty.

A Hope For This Baltimore, Maryland

My name is Kevin MacDonald and I'm not sure whether to call this a "band" or just a "project".
The meaning of the name for this is quite simple: we all have a hope for something. Your "this" is different from my "this", and everyone else's, too, but the fact remains that we all are hoping for something in our lives at one point or another, and that's worth holding on to. Never lose your hope. ... more
