To Hold On To

Give me a moment to grab on to something

I’m flying too far too fast

The bottle of lighting kept in my pocket

It doesn’t seem built to last

Verse

To hold on to, to hold on to

yet it all just slips away

To hold on to, to hold on to

as we reach for one more day

So we run and we run

‘till there’s nowhere to hide

and we scream and we cry

‘till there’s nothing inside

So no one ever sees the masquerade

and we hope against hope

that it all turns around

as we leap off the edge

but we don’t see the ground

Then like a wistful ghost I start to fade

Somebody somewhere must have some answers

why are the eyes on me?

The fog can be daunting, the way can be shrouded

when are we finally free?

To hold on to, to hold on to

as we fall into the fray

To hold on to, to hold on to

When there’s such a price to pay

So we run and we run

‘till there’s nowhere to hide

and we scream and we cry

‘till there’s nothing inside

So no one ever sees the masquerade

and we hope against hope

that it all turns around

as we leap off the edge

but we don’t see the ground

Then like a wistful ghost I start to fade

I fade… fade away
