Hope™ (Single)

by Handful of Snowdrops

supported by

Rebecca Schley I love every song on this release: The pensive, subdued "Empire of Illusion" leading into the soaring synth-heavy track "Hope", ending with the intense, electronic "To Serve in Heaven." I discovered HoS not too long ago and was ecstatic to find a new single released! Favorite track: Hope.

Henrik Ask Wow what a comeback!!!! 3 fantastic tracks

Mechanica You can’t help but feel energized and utter joy when hearing Hope single by Handful of Snowdrops! Truly beautiful tracks that bring fire to the dance floor! Thank You!

HOPE Made of none, all come undone No sobbing would shake your perfect frame Convinced you are cloaked under the covers Where you’re as happy as anyone Where no dissent you will tolerate Unless shared with smiley, with a flag or your picture Here’s to shape of things to come, And the few remaining realists Who won’t draw you in to colour you gone No, we won’t hold long like this Safe, sheltered and accounted for God, let it rain more wine, more games, more Novocain Never challenge, never lessen No, Ignorance wouldn’t be ignored But it will make you swallow all the same You were raised to serve in heaven Here’s to shape of thing to come, And a few remaining realists Who won’t draw you in to colour you gone No, we won’t hold long like this We’re reeking of hope The stench has staled the air We’re numb and cold We learned young and we learned fair To give up control So blithely unaware When truth be told We would rather not be there Over and done, our time has run The time to consider it all insane, A sunstroke fever, some drunken stupor
3.	To Serve In Heaven (Hopelessly) 07:09	lyrics
TO SERVE IN HEAVEN (HOPELESSLY) Made of none, all come undone No sobbing would shake your perfect frame Convinced you are cloaked under the covers Where you’re as happy as anyone Where no dissent you will tolerate Unless shared with smiley, with a flag or your picture Safe, sheltered and accounted for God, let it rain more wine, more games, more Novocain Never challenge, never lessen No, Ignorance wouldn’t be ignored But it will make you swallow all the same You were raised to serve in heaven Over and done, our time has run The time to consider it all insane, A sunstroke fever, some drunken stupor We’re reeking of hope…
