Hold
(First Verse)
We are hiding now
Regaining our senses
You can breathe now
But then hold your breath
We were running
From the enemy
Which felt like a long time
Even after we got in the woods
Then we climbed trees
To hide better
While the others down under
Hid in teepees
Let’s wait to the next morning
To climb back down
Keep your bearings
They aren’t that far
I can feel it
And I know it
How ignorant could you be
To ignore it
(Chorus)
Keep an eye out everywhere
You’re going to want to do that
You better hold on
To all that you know
This is how you’ll think now
To be always on your guard
Because for now on
You better hold on
(Second Verse)
You and I go far back
Years before we enlisted
Years before we thought
This was a good idea
And all that we have done
Is constantly flashing in my mind
Like I know
I’m about to die
I don’t want to sound rude
But you’re coming with me too
Because when I die
You will die too
And hey, I have no shame
I feel like I did good
While you disagree
You say we did bad
But at least right now
We can agree
That we need to hold on
And make it through this ambush
(Chorus)
Keep an eye out everywhere
You’re going to want to do that
You better hold on
To all that you know
This is how you’ll think now
To be always on your guard
Because for now on
You better hold on
(Bridge)
Hold on now
Don’t fall down
If you give up
You’ll be plummeting to the ground
Hold on now
Don’t fall down
If you give up
You’ll be plummeting to the ground
(Refrain)
Hold on to what you need
Because there’s no more smooth sailing
And now it’s getting risky
Hold on to what you love
Because when you fall down
They’ll be nothing to hug
Hold on to what you need the most
Watch the world burn
And yell you’re favorite curse
Hold on to what you love the most
Embrace and say goodbye
As you watch yourself die
Hold on to what you need
Because there’s no more smooth sailing
And now it’s getting risky
Hold on to what you love
Because when you fall down
They’ll be nothing to hug
Hold on to what you need the most
Watch the world burn
And yell you’re favorite curse
Hold on to what you love the most
Embrace and say goodbye
As you watch yourself die
Hold on to what you need
Because there’s no more smooth sailing
And now it’s getting risky
Hold on to what you love
Because when you fall down
They’ll be nothing to hug
Hold on to what you love the most
Embrace and say goodbye
As you watch yourself die
Hold on to what you need
Watch the world die
And wait patiently
