No Hope Lyrics

by The Vaccines

Oh I could bore you with the truth
About an uneventful youth
Or you could get that rap from someone else
And I could make an observation
If you are the voice of a generation
But I'm too self absorbed to give it clout

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e102241-the_vaccines~no_hope_lyrics.html ]
And I, I don't really care about
Anybody else when I haven't got my own life figured out
Cause when you're young and bored and 24
And you don't know who you are, no more
There's no hope
When you try to come of age
I think it's a problem
And does it ever go away?
I know I am so self-obsessed
I guess, but there's no hope
And I hope it's just a phase
Or I'll grow-oh-oh-oh

Oh I could look for inspiration
Find it in the charm of an English station
But wouldn't that be cheap and ill-informed
And I could bet you don't believe me
If I said it came from deep within me
But I promise you I'm telling you the truth

And I, I don't really care about
Anybody else when I haven't got my own life figured out
Cause when you're 24 and young and bored
And you don't know who you are, no more
There's no hope
When you try to come of age
I think it's a problem
And does it ever go away?
I know I am so self-obsessed
I guess, but there's no hope
And I hope it's just a phase
Or I'll grow

Well I wish that I was comfortable in my own skin
But the whole thing feels like an exercise
And trying to be someone I would rather not be
I'd try to second guess if you would be approving
I find my life ever so moving
Keen wide-eyed and unassuming
Okay

There is no hope
And there's desperately
No hope, and there's definitely
No hope if you don't believe me
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah there is no hope
And there's desperately
No hope, and there's definitely
No hope if you don't believe me
Oh, oh, oh

But I, I don't really care about
Anybody else when I haven't got my own life figured out
Cause when you're 24 and young and bored
And you don't know who you are, no more
There's no hope
When you try to come of age
I think it's a problem
And does it ever go away?
I know I am so self-obsessed
I guess, but there's no hope
And I hope it's just a phase
Or I'll grow

There is no hope
I know it's a problem
And it never goes my way
I know I am so self-obsessed
I guess, but there's no hope
And I hope it's just a phase
Or I'll grow-oh-oh-oh
