I attach myself to things I can't control

I can't control, mmm

I wonder then why my emotions overload

They overload, mmm

I realise I'm looking everywhere outside for me

Inside I'm screaming 'I am here'

And suddenly I wake up from the nightmare

I am safe now, I am not breathing in fear

Holding on is all I've ever known

So I have lived my life in sorrow

So if it comes just for it to go

It was never mine, it was borrowed

I found a safety in someone who will return

It's hard to learn, mmm

Into the dust, into the urn

I will return, I will return, mmm

I realise I'm looking everywhere outside for me

Inside I'm screaming 'I am here'

Holding on is all I've ever known

So I have lived my life in sorrow

So if it comes just for it to go

It was never mine, it was borrowed

Holding on is all I've ever known

So I have lived my life in sorrow

So if it comes just for it to go

It was never mine, it was borrowed

So hands off

Hold it lightly

It's not yours and it's not mine

It's true love, it's true love

Hands off

Hold it lightly

It's not yours and it's not mine

It's true love
