Hold What You Can

Sawdust and ashes fall down

Catching the light they've found

Better look closely before they fade

Distant and blurry they call

Paint with a pen what I saw

You said read it slowly and you'll have me

When the air gets thin

When the night won't end

When the ground caves in

Hold what you can

Our time is short and over soon

Saying new words with weight, they're true

I should have said it, I love you

When the air gets thin

When the night won't end

When the ground caves in

Hold what you can

When the air gets thin

When the night won't end

When the ground caves in

Hold what you can

Sawdust and ashes fall down

Catching the light, they've found

Better look closely before they fade
