lyrics

If you want me to beg for your attention, well, that's not going to happen. How dare you say that you want me while the taste of his mouth is all that you're thinking about? You didn't miss me, you just needed me to help you through the night, and all the loving things you said to me ended up being symbolistic scars from a knife.

I think you know how to play the game a little too well, and I think what I hate about myself is that I let you do it time and time again.

I just wanted to be worth your time, but time was never on your list of things you had for me and now I know where I sit with you: I was never worth it and you just weren't concerned.

I think you know how to play the game a little too well, and I think what I hate about myself is that I let you do it time and time again. If you want me to beg for your attention, well, that's not going to happen.

And I think this about does it, you've got nothing to lose and I've got too much to do with my life. You didn't miss me, you just needed me to help you through the night.

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
