Burnt to ashes

I was too afraid to give up hope
But there never was much to begin with anyway
Now there is no hope at all
Yet here I am, desperately clinging
Hoping even though Rome is burning

It is harder to hold onto it now
I am just afraid that I will give up
And by giving up I lose the fight

So here I am hoping
But I sense it isn’t true anymore
I say I hope but I don’t believe it
There is no hope within me
