Patience is nothing worth holding onto.
Bite my tongue?
Why should I
When you never did that for me?
When were you,
Were you schooled in technicalities,
And I didn't know I made friends
With fucking rock critics?

As the days go by
I've forgotten my limbs.
Are days really so short?
Are they just mine?
Show me some scars.
What good is this if I don't remember?
I'm not gonna let myself be concerned
With something so distant.

Hold tight, and maybe I will survive.
Hold tight...
Hold tight, and maybe I will survive.
Hold tight, and maybe some part of me...

    General CommentIt's about people giving his band negative reviews for not fitting the cookie cutter punk rock mold.
