Hold On

Woke up today, the Sun hadn’t risen

I dreamt last night that we’d seen our last dawn

Was it a nightmare or some strange vision?

We fought so hard, but now everything’s gone

All hope abandoned, how can we go on

Singing songs about love while the earth slowly crumbles

Sing songs of joy while the sky falls in flames

We won’t be remembered, our bones lie unburied

But I’ll love you, though only shadows remain

Please take my hand, lay me down by the river

Help me forget all we’ve built now lies dead

Bodies entwined, tremble and shiver

Please make me feel something other than dread

The past is unwritten, our sins all forgiven

Misery and fear have not made their mark

The vows left unbroken, the lies all unspoken

But I hear your voice calling out from the dark

Sing me songs about love while the earth slowly crumbles

Sing songs of joy while the sky falls in flames

We won’t be remembered, our bones lie unburied

But I’ll love you, though only shadows remain

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, please don’t slip away

Hold on, just hold me steady

And I’ll sing with you

Though this dark should be day

Songs about love while the earth slowly crumbles

Sing songs of joy while the sky falls in flames

We won’t be remembered, our bones lie unburied

But I’ll love you, though only shadows remain

Follow me down, down to the river

Tell me everything’s fine

Tell me, just look away

Dead heavens can’t help us

We won’t be delivered

If no one is left, then there’s no one to blame
