Holding On
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The moment that you wake from your disguise
They record you with their eyes
No matter how, long or hard they try
You know they won’t shake it
You know they won’t shake it
Reaching for the seam that holds you in
To find where you begin
Frozen in the pose they've chalked us in
You know we can’t break it
You know we can’t break this
Slowly disappearing out of view
Holding on to you
Slowly disappearing out of view
Holding on to you
The shutter clicks and we’re immortalised
Flashbulb our goodbyes
No matter how, long or hard you try
You know you can’t fake it
You know you can’t fake this
Slowly disappearing out of view
Holding on to you
Slowly disappearing out of view
Holding on to you
Slowly disappearing out of view
Holding on to you
Slowly disappearing out of view
Holding on to you
