Hold On

old friend
staring at pieces of your life in chains
you were gathering forces
and you were enraged
upon your head drinking again
these days
all of the boulevards have sprouted weeds
and I live under the sidewalk
where I take my ease
upon my head again
but you stopped
you crawled away
false starts
all I can say is hold on
hold on

The Thin Red Line
05:35
|

the grass that grew
on my old bed
was only for my head
the holy three
a family
was lying in my bed
with their eyes closed
see it dance along
the thin red line
hold it
oh until you're left behind
you can call on me
you can call on me
you can call on me
you can call
the giving tree
you gave to me
a pocket full of lead
the first degree
indemnity
I'll pray for you instead
with my pockets full of lead
see it dance along
the thin red line
hold it
oh until you're left behind
well, you can call on me
you can call on me
you can call on me
yeah, you can call on me
you can call
(there's a muzzle on his mouth
and chains on his feet...)

filing down the stair
on an island so fair
you can leave your doors
open all day long
sing me off the isle
putting on my best smile
hold me like the day
the saints watched over me
to you
I send my regards
on a wing in hope
I'll spend no expense
to keep you home
though you saw him...
to you
I send my regards
on a wing
and I'll hope
I'll spare no expense
to keep you home
though you saw him
with his arms open wide
the church bells ringing
the choir was singing
through the open windows
as you passed us by
so slowly
walking barefoot on the lawn
and hey
you feeling alone somewhere
life happening off somewhere else
a lie
a lie
to you
I send my regards
if there's no hope
say it to my face
don't hide your own
though you saw him
with his arms open wide
those church bells ringing
the choir was singing
through the open windows
as you passed us by
so slowly
walking barefoot on the lawn
