Modern Baseball - Hope Lyrics






I speak soft hoping you’ll hear me
Not too busy searching for your head and heart
I sing loud but only in the beginning just to grab your attention
Will you bare witness to these words that have been so hard to find.

Look at me when I say
I’m not just another one of your fucking push-aways
In your life all you’ve seen, so sick and tired of all those movie scenes
I’ll let you in, I’ll pour you out,
Let’s build you straight up, turn you ‘round and spit you out.
I am hope.

Look at me when I say
I’m broken and disheveled yet still working a double on your heart and in your head.
Not to be confused with the lines about losing them.
I’m speaking truthfully, I’ve spent so many sleepless nights
Just wondering “will I ever be able to be your hope”.
Your hope.

Shattered heart but you’re calling it “open minded,”
Dare I say you’re the one that makes me realize.

Our nights are not labeled as “life,”
Can we call them “living?”
I’ve found these present findings
To be directly connected to your secret-carings
I’ve been speaking truthfully, I’ve spent so many sleepless nights
Just wondering “will I ever be able to be your hope.”
Your hope.

I sing strong,
Will you just notice me
Spewing these lines out leaving my thoughts so dry?
Just you know you’re slowly brewing
A collection of moments,
My tangle of words should explain my lack-luster last line.

    The year was 2012, my freshman year of high school when me and some friends found these guys and did covers of them. Everything from this song up to The Weekend in an opened garage screaming and singing and jamming. Oh what a time that was. It almost makes me sad to know that it's going on 8 years since then

    -.... D....

    funny, Im in my freshman year of high school and just found out about these guys over the summer. Sometimes i wish I could've seen the band at it's peak, but I still love them so much. Hope that good music like this will still be around for other teens to listen to :)

    -.... D....

    Haha just the other night we were all doing mobo covers and had a full house of people singing along to pothole and it was so great to see that even at high school parties these days modern baseball's still a staple

    -.... D....

    @Sofia Garza I remember they came here to Albuquerque but I wasn't as big a fan as I am now and didn't see them. I don't think they'll ever be back here again after the Australia tour

    -.... D....

    found them in my freshman year of high school, senior now and I’ve been listening all 4 years. met and talked with Jake at one of his solo acoustic Slaughter Beach Dog shows a few months ago. super great dude. my band even covers its cold out here and the weekend, love mobo forever man :)

    I speak soft
    Hoping you'll hear me
    Not too busy searching for your head and heart

    Will you bare witness to these words that have been so hard to find?
    Look at me when I say I'm not just another one of your fucking push-away's

    So sick and tired of all those movie scenes
    I'll let you in, I'll pour you out
    Let's build you straight up, turn you around and spit you out
    I am hope

    Look at me when I say I'm broken and disheveled yet still working a double on your heart
    And in your head
    Not to be confused with the lines about losing them
    Oh, I'm speaking truthfully
    I've spent so many sleepless nights just wondering, 'Will I ever be able to be your hope?'
    Your hope

    Shattered heart but you're calling it open-minded
    Dare I say you're the one who makes me realize..

    Our nights are not labeled as life,
    Can we call them living?
    I found these present-findings to be directly connected to your secret carings
    Oh, I've been speaking truthfully,
