hope in the air

• laura marling in i speak because i can albümünden oldukça güzel, akıcı, yaşına rağmen feleğinden çemberinden geçmiş hissi uyandıran şarkısı. burda da sözleri:
  
  there is a man that i know
  seventeen years, he never spoke
  guessed he had nothing to say
  he opened his mouth on judgment day
  
  i listened with all of my might
  i was scared by the look in his eyes
  like he'd already lost the fight
  and there was no hope ever in sight
  
  no hope in the air
  no hope in the water
  not even for me
  your last serving daughter
  
  why fear death
  be scared of living
  oh, hearts are small and ever thinning
  there is no hope ever of winning
  oh, why fear death
  be scared of living
  
  i have seen men provoked
  and i have seen lives revoked
  and i looked at my life and i choked
  from there no more ever i spoke
  
  i can't give up that quick
  my life is a candle and a wick
  you can put it out, but you can't break it down
  in the end we are waiting to be lit
  
  there's hope in the air
  there's hope in the water
  but sadly, not me
  your last serving daughter
  
  a friend is a friend forever
  and a good one will never leave, never
  but you've never been south of what blows off your mouth
  you will never understand the ever
  
  you speak minds handed down to you
  by the lies handed down by your children
  and your angels that dance to your will
  to mask your scrambling fail
  
  i forgave you, your short comings
  and ignored your childish behavior
  let a kiss on your head
  and before i left said, "stay away from fleeting failure."
  
  there's hope in the air
  there's hope in the water
  but sadly, not me
  your last serving daughter
  
  pick up your rope, lord
  sling it to me
  if we are to battle, i must not be weak
  and give us your strength, lord
  our food and your water
  oh, i am your savior
  your last serving daughter
  
  there's hope in the air
  there's hope in the water
  but sadly, not me
  your last serving daughter
  
  there's hoping in the air
  there's hope in the water
  but no hope for me
  your last serving daughter
