You Me At Six - Hope For The Best Lyrics






Where the hell are all my friends.
We used to live for the weekends.
We don't live twice, just let that sink in.
I said where the hell are the good old days.
The days we didn't need a stage.
Just to have a room that's full of fakes.

Oh I hope for the best
I prepare for the worst
If you were in my shoes,
You would know, you would know how it felt.

You're always there for the highs, and never for the lows.
You always focus on my cons, and never on my pros (never on my pros).
You've got to keep the dream alive, or else it will die.
I long for the simple days when things were less contrived.

Oh I hope for the best
I prepare for the worst
If you were in my shoes, you would know, you would know how it felt.

And I don't know how, yeah I don't know how.
We're gonna make it through this, gonna make it through this.
Oh I don't know how, oh I don't know how.
We're gonna make it through this,
Gonna make it through.

Oh I hope for the best
I prepare for the worst
If you were in my shoes, you would know, you would know how it felt.
You would know, you would know how it felt.

  1. E.... ....

  8. L.... ....

    Hey guys, my name is Joe and i'm a member of an unsigned Irish rock band called LEMON.
    We are all 16 and we don't have much experience so we're looking for as much feedback as we can get.
    It would be great help if you could visit this channel and check out our stuff (especially our live stuff) and leave a comment and subscribe/like if you like what you hear!
    Sorry for spamming but it will only take a minute and it would help us out a lot!

    L.... ....

    Average. So overrated

  10. M.... S....

  12. S.... B....

    2nd APRIL COME ONNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!

  13. G.... L....

    3rd April literally cannot come quick enough.

  14. o.... ....

  15. K.... ....

    Little disappointing but i'm glad they've found their sound :)

  16. b.... w....

    3RD OF APRIL CANNOT COME QUICK ENOUGH

  17. R.... B....

    Pre ordered the signed deulux edition of Cavalier Youth and im going to my 2nd You Me At Six gig in april! ^_^ Quite happy right now.

  18. M.... l....

    I'm almost in tears because I miss my favorite band:( These lyrics just seem so sloped together and not really thought out or even seems like how he writes. I still am proud of them, it's just crappy because I have listened to You Me At Six when they were on Myspace with only like 3 or 4 songs to listen to! Ahhh I guess I'll stick to the Take Off Your Colours album, forever!

    M.... l....

    Bands change their sound as they grow and mature. Josh (and the rest of YMAS) has said that they have matured along with their music, continuing with their audience. For example, "The Liar and the Lighter" - Josh wrote that when he was 16 I think. He's contributed to the lyrics now, they're obviously going to be different. You're not wrong for craving a different sound from our favourite band, but this is who they are now.

    M.... l....

    @missmusicpie Eughh you annoy me.

    M.... l....

    @HaiiiBunny Don't worry, kid. The feeling is mutual.

    M.... l....

    @HaiiiBunny What was so annoying? Lmao, sit the hell down

  19. L.... U....

    Raping the repeat button ;D

  20. S.... ....

    Does anybody get a TRAPT vibe at the beginning? 

    S.... ....

    Exactly !

  21. C.... D....

    Bring on 27.1.14!

  22. C.... D....

    Bring on 27.1.14!

  23. c.... r....

    aswome song i cant wait for the album i pre ordered it :) xx

  24. T.... J....

    OH FFS I HAVE TO WAIT A WHOLE MONTH FOR THE NEW ALBUM:(:(:(

  25. p.... t....

    pour le coup, on attend mieux que ça...

  26. M.... B....

    Cant wait to see you guys in January <3

  27. N.... R....

    come to chile!

  28. R.... H....

    I love it!

  29. E.... R....

    You Me At Six never fail to amaze me.

  30. M.... ....

    ooh I HOOOPE FOR THE BEEESSTTTTTTT

  31. J.... B....

    I'd let this song do gay stuff to me

  32. b.... g....

    Pfft, nothing compared to Rebecca Ferguson...

    b.... g....

    you cant really compare the two artists because they have completely different styles of music 

    b.... g....

    Are you aware of the two styles of music? You me at six are good at THEIR music and I don't really listen to Rebecca but I'm sure she's good at her style too.

  33. E.... M....

    Josh's voice sounds really good on this and the new songs! Its an pleasnt improvement from take off your colours

    E.... M....

    Honestly Take off your colours is my favourite album of all time, however I can see why some would think this is an improvement. Just my opinion, take off your colours had more emotion in it.

    E.... M....

    Well I hope its an improvement from an album that was released about 6 years ago.

    E.... M....

    @Oliver Wright I agree, Take off your colours seemed to have been more their style and what they were trying to be. I think the pressure of record labels and trying to make everyone happy has gotten to them so I think its harder for them to put emotion into their music or lyrics anymore. My opinion. 

  34. x.... ....

    Ah this song is great, can't wait to hear the whole album!

  35. J.... ....

    I love the fact that You Me At Six didn't drastically change during their time unlike Panic! for example

    J.... ....

    panic! has always stated that they'd never make the same record twice and that their sound would continuously change, so I'm not completely shocked by their most recent record. but yeah, you me at six has always stayed true to their own unique sound!

  36. J.... ....

    I love the fact that You Me At Six didn't drastically change during their time unlike Panic! for example

    J.... ....

    And I love Panic! because they do haha

  37. H.... S....

    Love this !!!!! :D

  38. P.... J....

    This song has a Gaslight Anthem-esque sound, not a bad thing! :)

  39. J.... D....

    Hopefully theres some heavier songs they crank out on this album.
    I dont mind this stuff at all!
    Love the album cover too.
    Nice and simple yet it has something behind it hence why we must listen to the album.

  40. N.... J....

    Can't wait to see them next month! 😘

  41. P.... B....

    i just want to know when it's coming out in the US :(

  42. J.... A....

    Such an amazing song !!! :D ..i can't believe..this Band is really Awesome !!

  43. C.... C....

    The days we didn't need a stage, just to have a room that's full of aids

  44. J.... M....

    I love the new sound that YMAS are doing.. I think it is suiting them better, and they seemed to be enjoying it

  45. B.... S....

    guys.... stop worrying about a slight change of sound to previous albums and just Hope for the best ;)

  46. L.... ....

    I don't care what anyone says about the same kind of music. The new songs are amazing!! It's better than them changing their genre completely like a lot of bands have done, and they stuck with the rock that everyone loved them for. Thank you ymas for the amazing music<3

  47. O.... ....

    Nooooooo You me at is is becoming One Direction!!.. My only and last hope for punk/pop/Rock.  Lets Hope the rest of the album proves us wrong.

  48. J.... ....

    So far Cavalier Youth shows great promise and I want it nooooooowwwwwwww

  49. M.... B....

    I really wish all of YMAS songs were available to purchase in the US /:

    M.... B....

    its called youtube downloader xD

    M.... B....

    thanks cx 

  50. O.... ....

    To everyone saying that this lacks energy: It's not a single and it's the eighth track of Cavalier Youth, the tracks won't be quick and heavy throughout the album, just like Sinners Never Sleep, it has variety. The only two songs revealed from this album have been made to rank high in the charts and to show how the songs will vary

  51. X.... D....

    Pretty sure 70% of the views are mine love love love this song x

  52. v.... ....

    for me, Sinners Never Sleep is their best album so far. loved all the songs on that album and those songs are better than this and Lived a Lie

    v.... ....

    Sinners just has a bit of a darker/ heavier sound. All of their albums are incredible imo

  53. K.... ....

    I just feel like this song is so.... flat

  54. f.... k....

    I don't hate this I don't even dislike it this is just ok but it is nowhere near as exciting or energetic as anything they have done before. It's not a bad song but this recording really sounds pretty dull there is an overall lack of energy. I'm still looking forward to the full album though I'm sure there are more exciting songs than this.

  55. S.... G....

    My favorite band and one of the best songs!

  56. J.... A....

    I love it <3

  57. B.... W....

    Great song. You me at six will forever be my favorite band3

  58. J.... M....

    I seriously don't think I can wait 10 weeks for something so beautiful.

  59. N.... M....

    please !!!! can not wait a long 

  60. e.... ....

    loved a lie is amazing, this is great and i just know this whole album is going to be incredible! you guys were amazing in birmingham on friday and i can't wait for the caviller youth 2014 tour!

  61. M.... B....

    so excited for this new album to be released!!
    seeing you guys in january yayy <3

  62. A.... R....

    This is pretty epic. The drums and guitar are beautiful!

  63. r.... ....

    this sounds like internationally extendable. cool vibes!

  64. M.... X....

    This has grown on me, and I actually really fucking love it.

  65. S.... M....

    @Laura Cutrupi they're just trying to be heard more and lived a lie is so good like every track so like an all or if not a BELIEVER :)

  66. R.... ....

    I love this band <3

  67. L.... C....

    Thank God this one is different and kind of nicer than Lived a lie which was a big disappointment to me.

  68. P.... E....

    *^* perfect

  69. N.... R....

    You Me At Six music still continues to inspire me to love myself and keep going no matter how many curve balls life throws at me! (: I love the direction the are going in with their music.

  70. T.... ....

    I love it! So excited for the album and the tour.

  71. B.... R....

    So much happier with the new album after hearing this. Lived a Lie was such a letdown.

  72. C.... W....

    This song is just perfect I don't understand how people think its boring carnt wait for the album to come out so excited

  73. H.... M....

    argh I just love it sooo much! <3

  74. s.... ....

    Lived a Lie is awesome.. Hope for the best is awesome.. Any doubts bout the new album? Absolutely no!

  75. S.... ....

    It's different, but different isn't bad. This song is pretty good, better than Lived a Lie (which still wasn't bad). I think the thing with this song is that it's over before it really picks up.
    I'm still excited for the new album. Don't knock it before you've heard the whole thing - when they released Loverboy it was definitely not representative of SNS as a whole!!

  76. S.... M....

    I cannot wait for the new album, this sounds amazing!

  77. a.... ....

    A W E S O M E

  78. h.... ....

    I think Cavalier Youth is going to be the best album yet. Just listen to some old stuff like Promise Promise, then come back to this. They have improved so much and I'm proud of them.

    h.... ....

    Yeah.. and Promise Promise is better than this..

    h.... ....

    lol no.

  79. C.... D....

    Such a grower! Very happy I've pre-ordered Cavalier Youth ^^ 

  80. D.... J....

    Looking forward to the album even more now

  81. K.... B....

    not sure on this, just seems a bit safe doesn't pick up and no awesome breakdown at the end. hopefully will grow on me as you me at six are awesome cant wait to book tickets to their next uk tour :D

  82. L.... M....

    This song is freaking amazing, along with Lived A Lie too! Cavalier Youth is going to be the best start to the year ever! :') Well done guys and thank you for the beautiful music!

  83. T.... Y....

    The beginning is really promising but for me the chorus let it down still a pretty good song

  84. T.... Y....

    Like if you think hold me down is their best album ( I know I'll get some hate but in my opinion it's brilliant!)

  85. J.... H....

    I actually really like it, at first I didn't but the more and more I have listened its grown on me

  86. P.... K....

    i'm really not feeling this song which sucks because this is the first time i've thought this about a ym@s song :/ 

  87. C.... H....

    I like this

  88. B.... Z....

    Sounds a lot like Foo Fighters, reminds me loads of the song Wheels by them to be honest, which is a good thing

  89. K.... W....

    This is huge!

  90. L.... C....

    I usually listen to hardcore and metalcore exclusively. But I just love this band sooo much!

  91. A.... C....

    sure it's not the best on the album though!

  92. A.... C....

    pretty average to me! ow was expecting more. 

  93. M.... J....

    it's an okay song. i miss the songs with awesome climaxes like stay with me, always attract, there's no such thing... just doesn't sound special to me :/

  94. N.... D....

    Yep, this album is gunna be sick. Can gladly say, I've grown with each album, still sounds just like you me at six, just more mature. Stoked for this.

  95. x.... ....

    These two songs from their new album is more pop ish than the older songs. I like them, but there isnt really much rock over it

    x.... ....

    this isnt pop

    x.... ....

    Pop rock

  96. A.... M....

    I'm gonna let it grow on me. I'm not gonna say anything until the full album is out.

  97. J.... ....

    YMAS can't do wrong <3

  98. M.... J....

    Let's have a Spring Fever Tour Part II!
