Intro

Repeat during Em part of verse

The patriots hang flags outside

That's how they do it nationwide

 But back home we don't care so much

I might be wrong but that's how it looks

 We listen to the sound of our minds

I feel as though I'm losing time

With hands of glory pushing rhymes

Never been so far before

I drove for days and weeks and more

Hard shoulder where the chaos lies

An invitation to the darker side

 And I'm holding on, I am holding on

 I am holding on as my life it slips away

Holding on, I am holding on

 I am holding on as my life it slips away

Spinning out my mind it twists

More worries than I can seem to list

 I've served my purpose true and well

 but I haven't yet got much to tell

 I listen to the panic in my nerves

An agonizing journey home

With empty hands I stand alone

Face my family, face my friends

I'd better turn around and try again

 As I'm holding on, I am holding on

 I am holding on as my life it slips away

 Holding on, I am holding on

 I am holding on as my life it slips away, my life it slips away

Holding on, I am holding on

 I am holding on as my life it slips away

Holding on, I am holding on

 I am holding on, I am holding on

Holding on as my life it slips away, my life it slips away…
