Cover art for Holding On lyrics by Scary Kids Scaring Kids

Well first off i think this song is, if not, one of the best songs on the album. It takes you from the heavy intro, to the soft verses, then very melodic choruses.

Anywas so this song obviously involves to people, I and you, which implies the two people. And the you is female, so i assume that the I is a male. The male is obviously in love with this chick and he is trying to help her out, by telling her is there for her and what not. However, the female, i don't beleive gives him much of a chance and is glad when he struggles. "you’re probably glad to know, I’m losing what’s left of my dignity". The girls is trying to find herself, trying to find her life, but is having no luck. She finds that everyone in this world is just trying to get ahead in life at the risk of anyone's dignity. She, ironically, does the very same thing to the male in this song too. She becomes to a point where she can no longer go on, and the male is trying to help her, trying to help her go on. He wants his love to be known and i'm not sure if she loves him back, but she obviously sais something to him quite hurtful. And in the end she does not make it, "make it home". She almost finds herself, but not everyone is lucky enough to accomplish that.
