lyrics

in that time of youth
you fancied yourself cynical beyond reproof
so now you've been betrayed my friend
to the bitter end
sore disappointment done paint you as an idealist
that toughness was the brittlest

and so it goes that
when the time arrives
when life shows that our work and our goals don't survive for long
don't be surprised once more
you've been here before
and disappointment don't torture hopeless cynicals
yet still finds you delectable

and so its true
when something gives us pause
honest skeptics find the cause
does your hope got hold of you?
