Hold on a Little Longer

Wake up slow
Fall down fast
Solid walls
Built to last
Taste the earth
Drink up the rain
Can’t have the truth
Without the pain
There’s a ghost in the mirror
That looks a lot like someone
You used to know
There’s a hole in your heart
That keeps getting bigger
And a fire that keeps going out
There’s a light in your eyes
That keeps getting dimmer
And no one seems to hear when you shout
Hold on a little longer
Hold on a little longer
Emptiness
Just fills you up
And this life
Gets too much
Take my hand
Don’t let it go
You’re in the darkness
But no not alone
There’s a ghost in the mirror
That wishes they could
Be as beautiful as you
But there’s a hole in your heart
That keeps getting bigger
And a fire that keeps going out
There’s a light in your eyes
That keeps getting dimmer
And no one seems to hear when you shout
Hold on a little longer
Hold on a little longer
Are we under
Underneath a spell
Of the thundering of love’s divide?
Are we under
Underneath a spell
Who knows the truth
But there’s a hole in your heart
That keeps getting bigger
And a fire that keeps going out
There’s a light in your eyes
That keeps getting dimmer
And no one seems to hear when you shout
Hold on a little longer
Hold on a little longer
