Hold On

Hold On



Hold on to my hand until the flight lands

It’ll be a brand new time, a new sensation and a foreign wine

Hold on to my soul, until we find our homes

Send your prayers to the sky

Where the gods are sleeping and the sun shines



Hold on to my money while I’m drinking myself away

Put your hand on my shoulder so that I can hold my head up high

Hold on to my old crisis in a brand new place

Send your prayers to the sky

Where the gods are sleeping and the sun shines



Lay yourself on down beside me

Parallel to the city streets

The tragedy started at home

I’m awash in a sea of faces

With not a smile to be seen

It’s a parody of being alone



Hold on to my shoes while I jump into the water

If I don’t rise back up it means I like it there on the other side

Hold on to my memory if I don’t see you again

Send your prayers to the sky

Where the gods are sleeping and the sun shines



Lay yourself on down beside me

Parallel to the city streets

The tragedy started at home

I’m awash in a sea of faces

With not a smile to be seen

It’s a parody of being alone

There’s a ghost in my pocket whispering

Bittersweet pieces of nothing

About strangers and their destinations

There’s a soldier planting pretty things

At the feet of an angel’s sin

This world it lives in contradiction

We found ourselves a brand new place

Was it discovered that long ago

Is it ours to hold, is it our creation?



Lay yourself on down beside me

Parallel to the city streets

The tragedy started at home
