When you're on your high horse and things aren't going your way 
you really don't appreciate what you wanted bad yesterday.

But if I lost it - I'd still be the same 
It won't break my spirit - I'll look ahead just the same 
Times are hard it's true - I'll cope

But it won't get me down cause I got - High Hopes

When you're on the bottom the place to look is up 
When things are getting better, don't say enough 
What you achieve - that's for you to choose 
You can always - regain what you lose

Something shitty happens and it hurts - 
I'll cope It's time we all had - High Hopes

Some people can't rebound when hardship hits their life 
When they lose something they love and their friend's holding the knife. 
Pick up your head, get off the ground 
These High Hopes that I have keep me from getting down.
