Hold On

The men said my hands, my eyes

Were covered up and paralysed

I don't remember a thing

A night I spent in ignorance

Surgeons drumming in my mind

There is no time to pass the time

Flashback city lights are bright

Come on, take me home tonight

Hold on, hold on

The full moon won't be out tonight

Hold on, hold on

And everything will be alright

Hurricanes I never saw

This is the morning I wake up

Radio said some people dead

"Alive," I cried, "Alive, alive"

Open eyes see open wounds

Touch my hands, you become bruised

Battered, broken, severed and spoken

Don't believe it, don't believe

Hold on, hold on

The full moon won't be out tonight

Hold on, hold on

And everything will be alright

The message said and done

Passing on the summer sun

We are cool on the inside

Oh mamma, what you did

I never thought I could have lived

We're cool on the outside

Now that she has said and done

I just don't know what I'll become

Collect my head and leave

Baby starts to breathe

Lovers hands, a lovers heart

I'll be with you 'til it gets dark

Collect my head and breathe

Baby, I won't leave

Hold on, hold on

The full moon won't be out tonight

Hold on, hold on

And everything will be alright
