Prologue: Adam Beckett

I found it difficult

To be a storytelling failure

For all those years

Living was a challenge

That caught me so off-balance

And passed me by

Repeatedly, I stared my future in the face

She walked away

Her silhouette confirming my worst predictions

She walks away

Hope is just four disconnected letters

Combined and put together

By a disconnected man who missed the point

My life was just a promise that I uttered, then I broke it

And admitted as we all went up in flames

So I made a resolution that I'd pay back planet earth

And I would send out this faded portrait

Maybe we would all live on

We'd soar on

So I strapped it to a rocket and I sent it into space

Praying someday you would find it

Maybe we would all live on

We'd soar on

In all my years existing

As a storytelling failure

For all those years

I waited for a miracle

On a planet based on push and pull

And nothing changed

And one day, someone spoke inside of me

"Young man, rise and make your mark"

So today I will be free

With no one there to see

With no one there to see

Hope is just four disconnected letters

Combined and put together

By a disconnected man who missed the point

My life was just a promise that I uttered, then I broke it

And admitted as we all went up in flames

(So I made a resolution...)

So I made a resolution that I'd pay back planet earth

And I would send out this faded portrait

Maybe we would all live on

We'd soar on

So I strapped it to a rocket and I sent it into space

Praying someday you would find it

Maybe we would all live on

We'd soar on

So I strapped it to a rocket and I sent it into space

Praying someday you would find it

Maybe we would all live on

We'd soar on
