Hopeless, but Hoping

The days grow longer, I grow weak.
So fragile now, that it hurts to speak.
Can't open my eyes, so I live in a dream.
Life's been untangling my hearts' seam.
Hopelessness sinks in, it's comforting in a way.
But I've got to open my heart, and let a little faith stay.
So now I'm hopless, but hoping, as I fall apart.
That someday I'll stop breaking, and get a restart.
And I'm hopeless, but hoping, as the phone rings.
That someday, I won't want to make a noose with my heart strings.
I'm hopeless, but hoping, in the darkness of the night.
It won't be today, but someday things have to be alright.
