Wild Hope Lyrics

In a crazy world
Anything can happen if you will it to
Just a hazy girl
Blurring all the edges only seeing blue

Its a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright

Lost inside
A painting of the city on a hotel wall
Days go by
Wasting golden hours in the fall

Its a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright

I catch a glimpse of our reflection
Beside you I see myself
We are the seasons new collection
We look like everybody else

Walk along through the crowded streets
Into the fading gray
Here i'm gone
Like a decleration for the holiday

Its a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright

Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm not sure if it's uplifting. I think "wild hope" is kind of like "wildest dreams". Your wildest dreams are things that are relatively unbelievable - it could happen, but it probably won't.

I think this is a song about blurring into the background and not feeling noticed. It gives me the impression of being lost and alone, and incredibly unhappy. Whilst wanting everything to be alright, I don't think she really believes it will be, and she's drifting through the seasons feeling empty. I imagine she wrote this when in the midst of her depression, or when invoking memories of it. Terribly sad.

I always think of a cold fall day when I hear this song...orange leaves on the street...slightly rainy...and just feeling melancholy in general.
