Nick Krefting - The Shame of My Hope Lyrics

I met a man when I came to the crossing
It didn't take long before we were in love
He used me for singing I used him for dancing
He knew how to talk and I knew how to listen up

With metals and empties and our hollow bodies
We filled up the whole neighborhood with our noise
Songs wrote for no one, I said, but kept dreaming
Sitting alone with the shame of my hope

And all we saw was nothing
And all we knew was

Well I never learned how to play the piano
Even though I always wanted to know
Maybe there's time now my gray hairs are growing
Maybe that's part of the shame of my hope

And all I see is nothing
And all I know is
