Lyrics

Hold On

She had a history of killing herself I had a habit of dying I think she gave me something to live for I guess I helped her pass her time I had a vision of seeing things straight She had the heart of a liar I never saw her leaving me once She never felt me beside her And it's cruel, but she's got a good hold on me It's cruel, but she's got a good hold on me
