I Hope You Understand Lyrics by I The Victor

Pause

2015

[Verse 1]
It's been a minute since I lost my way
And I have not been feeling like myself buddy
I have not been feeling like myself since then, okay
It's been a minute since I checked way out
It's been a minute since I had no doubt or fear
Are you here to pave the way to my lantern atmosphere?
Or are you gone, gone?
Am I surprised?
Maybe yeah sort of - but this is my life
I am disordered - I'll fall to the side, then I'll fall to the sky, then I'll fall to the sky yeah!
Somewhere in the darkness you said you'd be there
Flip on the flood lights, cause I am right here
I've got all my maps laid out on the floorboards
Maybe give me your direction some more
[Chorus]
I just really hope you understand
I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on my brain
I hope you understand
I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on it, I work on it
[Verse 2]
So I let them all go, I let the dice roll
I let the chips settle where they will, will, will
But I have not been feeling very well buddy
I keep on comparing myself, buddy, and it's getting me restless
It's been a minute since I have felt whole
I suppose I've just been feeling all alone buddy
But this is gonna give too, do you promise?
Something here is gonna give too do you promise?
[Pre-Chorus]
I've got all my maps laid out on the floorboards
Maybe give me your direction some more
[Chorus]
I just really hope you understand
I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on my brain
I hope you understand
I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on it, I work on it
[Bridge]
Isn't it true, that you're coming too?
Isn't it true, that you're coming too?
That I'm blinking in the darkness when I'm trying to find you
When mind you- I've got such little proof besides you
So what I'd do to fine the truth is pretty telling
Well, let me riddle you this:
You've been given to eyes, two wrists, two lips
Only one heart and only one brain
So playing the game is an uneven plain, saying
"Riddle me up with your words!"
I'm writing a prose, I'm writing a novel of my own self woes
I am tired, I am tired of not being humble
I'm a glass house, lord
Excuse me then with my friends
I cannot pretend I've amended all of my questions
They are still questions and they need attention
I'm taking a stand and trading it in with my head in my hands
Saying you take the reigns, you take the plan, you take the night, you go instead
I just really hope you understand
[Chorus]
I just really hope you understand
I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on my brain
I hope you understand
I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on it, I work on it
