Hope for the hopeless, and love for the hopeless romantics. It is a perfect mix of both.
19. "Like fire in my veins, you're my ecstasy." - "H.O.L.Y" by Florida Georgia Line
This entire song is caption-worthy, so it is difficult to pin-point a specific post it would match with.

Let's be honest, Instagram captions are difficult to choose when you are trying to fit an aesthetic. So as a fellow Instagram user, take my advice. Lyrics can say exactly what you need them to.
