(Ok)

Pop tart, what's the matter?

Did you lose what you're after?

For your tears I'm still singing,

For your fears, I am ringing

From Houston on a downer buzz

Like you said, It's just because

You'll detonate your long lost kisses

Wished on the eve of forgotten blessings

So start your way for some new impression

That try to hold on

To this heart a little bit stronger

Try to hold on

Try with this love aloud

Try to hold on

For this heart never been broken

Try to hold on

Try to hold on

Pop tart, did you flatter

When they spoke of my disasters?

At 13 I lost my compass

But I'm sure it's all accomplished

As desires on my ghost trains

Like you said when it rains

It's pours down the back of the bitter son

Desperate for love and loves everyone

In my mother's arms, no simple harm

Conspires to hold on

To this heart

A little bit closer

Try to hold on

To this love aloud

Try to hold on

And we know if we go under

We just can't let go

No, no

Pop tart, will it matter

If I lose and just shatter?

Will you cry, and keep crying

Will I die, and keep dying

In Tokyo, the sad tragic blues

Like you said, it's how you use

'Cause someday we'll know if this even matters

Our rings and maze and simplicity

When can we laugh and take all the credit

And know we'll go free

With our hearts a little bit stronger

Try to hold on

For this love aloud

Try to hold

For this heart's a little bit frightened

Just try to hold on

Just try to hold on

Just try
