Hopeless Revisited

Welcome back to Hopeless. My god we've missed you so! Someone you once cared about found you awhile ago- walking the get-home station and talking in your dreams. You took a wrong road somewhere ,child. Missed us too much it seems. You stayed afloat quite well this time. You really had us going. But the river that bore you away,sweet is ever backward flowing. Now we're all here to greet you as you slip back into doubt. Just fall and let us catch you as you toss your soul about. So welcome back to Hopeless. You know you've missed us so. Why did you ever wander child? We'll never let you go!
