Hold On

One, two

And the signs aren't clear as you try to steer
Through the terror and the hate and crime
But never once should you ever want to die
And after all of the years, you can't put back tears
They just drain you as you say goodbye
But never once should you ever want to die

Everything is changing
Everything is strange, friend
Everything is changing
Everything is strange, friend
Hold on

And so you fashion a whip for your own back
And we watch you tear yourself apart
How long's it been since someone said how beautiful you are?
And that awful guilt is not your cross
It's just something you were told was fair
How long's it been since someone said how beautiful you are?

Everything is changing
Everything is strange, friend
Everything is changing
Everything is strange, friend
Hold on, hold on
Oh, you better, better hold on, love

And there's so many stories and so many people
It's overwhelming as you sigh
What good's a god if you can't ever ask it why?
And so you heave it along when you're all you've got
And you kiss another day goodbye
String enough good times together and we might just have good lives

Everything is changing
Everything is strange, friend
Everything is changing
Everything is strange, friend

Hold on, hold on
Oh, you better, better hold on, love
Hold on, hold on
Oh, you better, better hold on, love
