Antony And The Johnsons - Hope There's Someone Lyrics






Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?

Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired

There's a ghost on the horizon
When I go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night?
How will I rest my head?

Oh I'm scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don't want to be the one
Left in there, left in there

There's a man on the horizon
Wish that I'd go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight
Will allow rest my head?

So here's hoping I will not drown
Or paralyze in light
And godsend I don't want to go
To the seal's watershed

Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?

Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired

Antony And The Johnsons Hope There's Someone Comments
  1. A.... ....

    I found a cover of this song (edit: by avicii ) when I was younger and loved how the intense sonic elements matched with the plea of the lyrics throughout that version. now that I'm older I'm glad I've found this one. the way it ends with such a build up is almost dizzying. I'm not trying to pit the two together or anything, I'm merely saying this song has suited me well for some time, and in two different ways.

    The xfm ricky Gervais show bought me here

  7. k.... m....

    Im 61...in 2013 I 2as divorced after 31 years, 5 kids and forgave my husband 4 times that he slept w girlfriends...that was b4 we both got clean and we changed. Guess he wanted a younger model, he married a woman 16 yrs younger than me within months...dated her less than a year.. he d her 3rd husband....they live in the house we bought...yeah ..i know. In 2014, 4-2014, Easter Sunday, my then boyfriend beat me in the head while driving at 40 mph, causing me to accelerate to 70 and go into oncomming lane, which i straightened out only to be hit again and go way off the road, thru a fence and roll; I have residual complications from the head injury that resulted. I felt secure in my marriage untill i didnt...and after divorce and the violence from my ex boyfriend and PTSD, fear and cPTSD gripped my life. The lyrics describe how I feel and began feeling living alone. Siince my accident and T.B.I.. 5 1/2 years ago, I have not dated, been afraid to...mostly coz i dont really know how to. I just heard this song, and im crying because it speaks to a place in me ii try to avoid, yet cant. Im thinking I should at least joiin some intrest group or a class if some kind, or community theater, volunteeer somewhere so I can meet older ppl and maybe strike up intrest and actually consider dating...not so i can "find him", but to get past my fears and , well, maybbe meet someone who can make me laff and have interesting things to say besides blatant sexual innuendo all the time...really at my age its not that I dont want or miss sex...its just someone like me wasnt into "sport f@$king in my 20's, not gonna start that now...p.s.-men...esp. younger...when you compliment a women oldeer than you...NEVER end with. ."for your age!" A simple You look great/sexy/fit/hot- etc is all we should hear ... not ...for your age. thanks...peAce

    I miss you Mark Jackson. Those crazy nights when it was two of us drinking 'world beers'. Our excuse for lots of high alcohol liquor! We traded our musical discoveries. You introduced me to this artist. You were so funny when you saw how stunned I was by it's beauty. We played it every time your girlfriend was away and I would call over for one of our 'world beer' nights. RIP my beautiful friend. You left us way too young. I am heartbroken.

  13. S.... K....

    I always listen to this song everytime I feel lonely and disappointed

    I came from the voice

    That’s nice

    @Jordan P yeah

    T.... T....

    TOP TUNE same

    T.... T....

    @Jordan P They were a perfect couple to sing . That song must be a duet not a battle .

    T.... T....

    TOP TUNE totally agree! Rewatching all voice auditions just now and there’s always one better than the other but that “battle” was amazing their voices were perfect together!

  15. 1.... 4....

    Słuchając tej piosenki , przypomina mi się Tomasz Mackiewicz i jego wielka walka o życie na gorze ,, nanga parbat ”

  16. A.... M....

    This is the song you need when you're scared of dying.

    A.... M....

    Aylin Moony Mercury I’m not scared of dying. I’m scared of dying alone.

  17. j.... c....

    Anohni, you are someone that I don't know personaly (someday I'll meet you), but you have been one of the most important people that makes me more alive and honestly grateful for this life not choiced by me, but introduced by some people before me, before my parents and even before God (or other names that He have in all the cultures in this world). I live in Brazil and I'm afraid about the future of this country. You and many other artists are saving parts of my soul and giving me hope to try and fight for justice and love. I'll send to you this words in other ways and, maybe, in my future, I'll have the chance to say it to you, looking into your eyes. I'm a ridiculous fall in love, but I'm pround.

  18. B.... R....

    RIP Avicii

    I never had a pet but after one year of my first cat she gone missing for 4th day now. I feel physical pain in my head, throat, and hearth. I feel like im going to break down any moment. I was never much of a crier, but damn if i ever knew you can love an animal so much.
    Breaking bones is childs play comapred to emotional pain of a missing loved one. Or worse. Oh god im praying for her, and im not even religious.

    Like si vienes xq es la canción favorita de alba reche💖

  44. W.... ....

    A lot of commenting on this seems people associate this song with death. I don’t at all. For me this speaks of loneliness and depression. I empathise immensely with the lyrics. I’m relatively young (30) and longtime single, to me it speaks of that fear or being alone the rest of your life. It’s quite a beautiful song if incredibly tragic.

  45. D.... S....

    i can feel every single hair on my body just shaking listening to this !

  46. L.... A....

    Aight im a metalhead, and this is one of the few song that makes me cry in the blink of an eye, Such a beautiful voice perfect lyrics there is nothing wrong with this song whatsoever

  47. R.... C....

    This is quite possibly one of the most hauntingly beautiful things I have ever heard. Wow, just wow. This has just ripped my heart in two. I miss you, Mae, I just wish I could tell you how much you changed my life

    R.... C....

  53. M.... S....

    So intense.

  54. M.... ....

    Last year, i was really sick. Necrotizing fasciitis on my left leg. They urgently made some surgeries. But it wasn't over yet. They started intravenous antibiotics to stop the spreading. I remember the doctor speak out these words : "if the antibiotics doesn't stop the spreading in a day of two, you'll most likely die".
    I was listening to this song day and night. I didn't knew i was gonna make it or not... But i made it. I really saw the man in the horizon. I saw him clearly. He spared me tho...

  55. s.... ....

    Just found this song today... lost my sister last year to cancer. I miss her every day.
