The world is torture
I could plainly see
Even from my perch in this old town
The storms they blow
From seeds we sow all around
Standing in defiance
Face into the wind
Fire in my heart to change it all
Opposing tides
A sacrifice and a fall
No denying
I am sinking like a stone
Slowly dying
I can't do this on my own
So
Hold me close
Solace from the ache and weather
Hold me down
A raging heart that's piercing through
All this time spent in the cold
Save me from myself and
Hold me down
Hold me down
Scars that haunt me
Visions of a past
A nature that just wants to pull me down
A rebel's fight
That blinds the sight, mutes the sound
No denying
I'd be sinking like a stone
Slowly dying
I can't do this on my own
So
Hold me close
Solace from the ache and weather
Hold me down
A raging heart that's piercing through
All this time spent in the cold
Save me from myself and
Hold me down
Hold me down
And this dirty place of sorrow
Holds memories that we can't borrow
Try in vain to fix what's falling
Screaming towards the future
While we are crawling
Hold me close
Solace from the ache and weather
Hold me down
A raging heart that's piercing through
Hold me close
Tightly grasp and ache together
Hold Me down
A raging sea that wants me through
All this time spent in the cold
Save me from myself and
Hold me down
Hold me down
Hold me down
Hold me down
