Holding on to the Night

Side by side we lie here

Prisoners in the dark

Afraid to face the things we feel

Afraid to even start

Silent daggers cut right through

Spaces thick with fear

You hold on tight to what you know

You know there's nothing here

And when you laugh, you look away

Before you start to cry

There's a little bit of madness

Behind your eyes

You keep holdin' on to the night (holdin' on to the night)

Holdin' on to the night (holdin' on)

It's all you got, you can't let go

You know it isn't right

You keep holdin' on to the night

Side by side we lie here

Prisoners in the dark

Afraid to face the things we feel

Afraid to even start

And though we live this lonely life

A masquerade of love

Two frozen hearts

That can't seem to touch

You keep holdin' on to the night (holdin' on to the night)

Holdin' on to the night (holdin' on to the night)

It's all you got, you can't let go

You know it isn't right

You keep holdin' on to the night

Maybe if we light the torch

Stop asking who's to blame

We could see the truth

Rising through the flame

You keep holdin' on to the night (holdin' on)

Holdin' on to the night (holdin' on to the night)

It's all you got, you can't let go

You know it isn't right

You keep holdin' on to the night

Holdin' on to the night (holdin' on to the night)

Holdin' on to the night (holdin' on to the night)

It's all you got, you can't let go

You know it isn't right

You keep holdin' on to the night

Holdin' on to the night
