Hold my hand

Lyrics


  v1
We made it again    to the promise land
The questions we never    got to the bottom of
Iiiii can see    the lights at the end
Ain't there a bigger truth    than a lie
  v2
It's a mystery   and a deep concern
How we shall ever   love one another
We might just fall   into a great hole
And get smashed up against  each other
  v3
Iiii never thought I could   learn to fly
expanding my infinite   horizon
in truth I expected   to crawl just like a worm
for the rest of my pitiful   existence


C1
==Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me
Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me

  v4
Pull my finger  and grab me by the hair
you always knew how to bless me
I don't need you, need anyone
can be alone forever
  v5
Read my lips as I tell you to (f)/bugger off
The online spaghetti of nanofiber dreams
The spider in my bathroom sings loudly of his daughter
I sit and weep in the shoooower


C2
==Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me
Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me

  v6
I could see you there  in the foggy dark
reflecting the lights  of the fireflies
all them pretty bugs   would love to fly around
circling and entering  your eyes
  v7
you had your tongue out and shook your head
ain't nothing like it so scary
I stopped to breathe and you punch me in the throat
I gasp and remember  beauty

==BRIDGE

oh you treat me  so nice and kind
I couldn't believe  the power in your voice
to save and to cure  my weary mind
you're gravitational  and I never had a choice

  v8
You found me in the dark lookin like a fool
look like a scary  (mf)/bastard
I tell you no lie  if I die right now
I'll still remember  your laughter

C3
==Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me
Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me

  v9
self destruction that's the   name of the game
isn't my life so   special?
Iiiii'm closing    my eyes to time
ain't nothing   that I can't see
  v10
walking in   a straight line
into paths   I never crossed
feeling the rocks   from under my feet
thru the blood   and calluses
  v11
watching close  as my eyes start to bleed
I become  a walking fountain
eventually  I lay myself down
on the side of the mountain

C4
==Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me
Hold my hand  and push me off a ledge
But hold it tight  so you can save me
