Avenue of Hope is an atmospheric track by Manchester trio I am Kloot. Formed in 1999, they create a melancholic indie acoustic sound which has heralded six successful studio albums.
This photo is hardly an avenue of hope, but Kloot’s lyrics were probably sardonic in which case they might apply...
Avenue of Hope by I Am Kloot
“Along the avenue of hope
The footsteps falter, the fingers grope
and days, stretch out, beneath the sun
No-one's born, and no-one dies, no-one lives, so no-one cries
and we wait to see just what we will become
Don't let me falter, don't let me ride
Don't let the earth in me subside
Let me see just who I will become...”

Don't let me falter, don't let me ride
Don't let the earth in me subside
Let me see just who I will become...”
