I just have to say that I recently heard “I’m Wide Awake” for the first time and I am amazed at its goodness. The story that begins “At The Bottom of Everything” kind of knocked my socks off. I don’t see, however, this hopelessness that has been discussed. Is there a particular chord progession or specific bits of lyrics that you guys find hopeless? I hear poetry. Searching, maybe. No hopelessness though.
