Hello I’m Vessy Mink and this is my week 5 submission for Vibes Web 3 Music Competition.
I wrote this song “High Hopes” one late evening when I should have been sleeping…in fact the haunting opening lyric came to me just as I was drifting off to sleep. Needless to say, I had to get up and write this song. I hope you love it.

High Hopes
High hopes that made me sick that made me stone… I travelled far and wide to find the places I could cling too…
A statue never sleeps it’s all alone
It will not be forgotten lives in city centers on its own…and I would run for miles and miles around the palace un-inspired, in the finest dresses of the land…
I need to tell you the whole story
It happened a long long time ago
We were all under water
How far we’ve fallen, so far below
High hopes that made me run into your arms
High hopes that I’d not be forgotten by the stars
High hopes that life is more than who we are
While stumbling on aggravating doors that close
and eyes that look away…
I need to tell you the whole story
It happened a long long time ago
We were all love & glory
How far we’ve fallen, so far below… and I would run for miles and miles in and out the labyrinth while searching for a way to disappear
With all the gold cloaked mockery
Guided ego misery
Hidden far away with no escape
I need to tell you the whole story
It happened a long long time ago
We were all dressed in furs and fury
How far we’ve fallen, so far below…
High hopes… I got them
High hopes… I got them
High hopes… I got them
High hopes…
