There was a time when I had the fire
And I could have made it through one more night
But I’m losing my mind and can’t find the light
Then you take my hand and make it alright
If we had the choice to block out the noise
Will you be strong and keep holding on?
If this was your last breath, would you waste it on me?
Stick around when I’m in the dark
Be the angel that comes down and picks up my heart
When it’s all wrong, can we be strong?
And keep holding on
And keep holding on
It’s been a while since I could’ve felt
Anything other than this kind of hell
But you and your halo, and everything lets go
That’s been pulling me down this low
So will you be strong and keep holding on?
If this was your last breath, would you waste it on me?
Stick around when I’m in the dark
Be the angel that comes down and picks up my heart
When it’s all wrong, can we be strong?
And keep holding on
Holding on, holding on, holding on
Holding on, holding on, holding on
So will you be strong and keep holding on?
If this was your last breath, would you waste it on me?
Stick around when I’m in the dark
Be the angel that comes down and picks up my heart
When it’s all wrong, can we be strong?
And keep holding on
And keep holding on
And keep holding on
