Never Let You Go

hold your own
hold your own
hold
first day in the light, i missed it
though lent you the coveted life
but father i want an exit
you know i behave wonderless at your feet
the last dream that i was chasing was so bad for you
i lost in the cold
hey would you hope that i
that i lied instead
that's my time to admit it

hey i could watch all day
you swim in the lavender haze like a kite
hey two at a time
tell me why does it matter if the feeling is right
as brutal sleep can show
marrow pressing out of the bone
right or wrong instead of the truth
take your time and choose slowly
and don't force your eyes

you know i can be forever open
but you've led me around and around
your laughing game is a war
but everybody knows
you aren't [bad word] so sit down
oh it's simple
because i appreciate it
oh it wasn't your fault
your face and your hands
exchange no man's advice
but your hips tell time
i'm gonna close your open eyes

in danger to get by
i'm the best thing you have
and you should behave
hey two at a time
tell me why does it matter
you had a wish to go home
in braces still a child
we heard you cry
how close that i think your pain strikes
instead of the truth
life is tough on you, too bad it's easy for me
thick and loud, don't forget it

riding on the work of another
yeah you never had a problem at all
the white stables are higher
gonna find the tattered wing you don't show
old crow, don't
chase me back
you sweep the floor
false prophet, can you coax it open?
You stupid [bad word] corrupted
yeah, futile and old

it doesn't last
oh my god

hey I could watch all day
no one foretold that I'd laugh my way into a hole
hey two at a time
such a long path the night can be
No one foretold
...the feeling is right..
what a clever hand to hold
MOM
..marrow pressing out of the bone
oh i'd love a natural end
take your time and choose slowly and don't force your eyes
life is tough on you
hold your own,
hold your own
life is tough
oh i'd love a natural end
