Breaking Benjamin – Hopeless Lyrics

Rock

Here I lie forever, sorrow still remains
Will the water pull me down and wash it all away?
Come and take me over, welcome to the game
Will the current drag me down and carry me away?
Suddenly the light begins to fade

Hopeless
I'm falling down
Filthy
I can't wake up
I cannot hold on, I will not let go

Worthless
It's over now
Guilty
There's no way out
I cannot hold on, I will not let go

Silent I go under, I am not afraid
I can see the daylight shine and slowly drift away
Safe to say it's over, sink into the grave
There is nothing left inside, but I am wide awake
I can hear the devil call my name

Hopeless
I'm falling down
Filthy
I can't wake up
I cannot hold on, I will not let go

Worthless
It's over now
Guilty
There's no way out
I cannot hold on, I will not let go

Hopeless
I'm falling down
Filthy
I can't wake up
I cannot hold on, I will not let go

Worthless
It's over now
Guilty
There's no way out
I cannot hold on, I will not let go

Hopeless
Hopeless

    Verse one is about him dying. Verso two is about the moment of his death and his going to hell. The chorus is also about him at the moment of death. He can't hold on to his life but he's too afraid to die. The screams are either his comments about himself, or the Devil taunting him.
