"There's always something in the way. There's always something gettting through. Its not me, its You. Its You. Sometimes ignorance reads true. Hope is not in what I know. It's not in me, its in You. It's in You. It's all I know. It's all I know. It's all I know. I find peace when I'm confused. I find hope when I'm let down. Not in me, in You. It's in You. Hope to lose myself for good. I hope to find it in the end. Not in me, in You. In You. It's all I know. Its all I know. Its all I know. In You. in You. Its in You. In You. There's always something in the way. There's always something getting through. It's not me. Its You. It's You.
