hanging on to hope

I'm hanging on to hope
but my fingers are slipping
and I can't keep holding on
my hands bleeding raw
still I try to keep gripping
but all of my strength is gone
somebody notice me
somebody notice me

I'm hanging on to hope
but the high wire's unwinding
and gravity's not a friend
the wind's on the rise
and the sunlight is blinding
and everything's happening again
somebody notice me
somebody notice me

          I didn't mean to be this way
          I've tried everything I can
          but nothing works
          nothing works

I'm hanging on to hope
but I think that I'm falling
and I don't have the courage to fight
somewhere in the dark
I hear destiny calling
and I crumble into the night
somebody notice me
somebody notice me
somebody notice me
I'm still here
