Hold Steady

(Get it ready) (Let it go) (Something simple I don't know) Stop, I can't think I've got everything flashing and I'm on the brink of collapse Oh, I'm way past that And I can't even tell We've got it all right here Or maybe we'll just disappear That's my only fear Welcome to hell Oh, hold it steady Get it ready Let it go Something simple I don't know She smiles, sips on a cocktail Talks about her long term plans She don't need schooling anyway She's gonna marry a rich old man Did we stoop this low? Man, I don't know She says she's broke But we're all broken too Oh, hold it steady Get it ready Let it go Something simple we don't know And I guess it shows We'd crack the skies in half if they said so Something simple I don't know We need to take it back to the front lines again Too many runners, too many loose ends Too many of them think they're men, they pretend No heads, no hearts, no end for them It's been so long I forgot what I want Too much thinking too little gets done And what if i'm wrong and have been all along This hill's too steep, I'm too far gone So I step back to the top again I live alone 'cause I can't make friends I wish somebody would make some sense I gotta stop wishing that the rules would bend Oh, hold it steady Get it ready Let it go Something simple we don't know And I guess it shows We'd crack the skies in half if they said so Something simple I don't know
