Jack Johnson - Sleep Through The Static (2008) - Hope lyrics

  • Shadow walks faster than you
    You don’t really know what to do
    Do you think that you’re not alone?
    You really think that you are immune to
    Its gonna get that the best of you
    Its gonna lift you up and let you down
    It will defeat you then teach you to get back up
    After it takes all that
    You learn to love

    Your reflection is a blur
    Out of focus
    But in confusion
    The frames are suddenly burnt
    And in the end of a roll of illusion
    A ghost waiting its turn
    Now I see can right through
    It’s a warning that nobody heard

    It will teach you to love what you’re afraid of
    After it takes away all that
    You learn to love
    But you don’t
    Always
    Have to hold to your head
    Higher than your heart

    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better be hoping you’re not so…

    Du du du
    Hope you’re not alone
    Hmm hmm humm

    Your –
    Your echo comes back out of tune
    Now you can *probably get used to
    *Reverb is just a room
    The problem is that there’s no truth
    It fading way too soon
    The shadow is on the move
    And maybe you should be moving too
    Before it takes away all that you learned to love
    It will defeat you and then teach you to get back up
    Cause you don’t
    Always
    Have to hold your head
    Higher than your heart

    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better be hoping you’re alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not alone
    You better hope you’re not so…
    Du ru ru ru ru
    Hope you’re not alone
    Hmm hmmm hmmmm
    Better hooope
    Huuu huuu hmmm
    Better hope you’re not alone
    Huuu huuu hmmm
    hooope
