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
