Hold Fast

Verso 1: Starlight is streaming down a dead-end street Lead our way back to something good It's high time we turned around this lousy luck You know tonight I think that we could Verso 2: Raise my glass to starting over Knock on wood we're getting warmer now It's hard to read the street signs In these dim lights and soft reflections No dead ends just new directions Say that I think we're on an incline Don't you? I lose myself sometimes on these broken streets But I still dream I cough I breathe So beat me down I won't ever leave And even though I bruise myself somehow on the same concrete And lose some skin this world we're in can do its worst It'll never win We float away like fireflies in city night Across the park where the flowers end and the nothing starts Verso 3: Until we're half dead and scheming here in your backyard Find some truth in the wine we spill Fell short tonight but we'll keep coming back We always have and we always will I lose myself sometimes on these broken streets But I still dream I cough I breathe So beat me down I won't ever leave And even though I bruise myself somehow on the same concrete And lose some skin this world we're in can do its worst It'll never win Ponte: But right now I don't care Your smile is like a cure to my poison luck In pitch black we lay back And laugh until the sun comes up And we hold fast Outro:
