Head on (Hold on to Your Heart)

There's a knock at your door

You don't even recognize the stranger

It's you from before

Tryna warn you all about the dangers

There's a hole in your head

At least that's what everybody's guessing

It's why you're always misread

It's why you sleep, but you never feel rested

You never get your rest in

Hold on to your heart

Hold it high above flood waters

Hold on to your heart

Never let nobody drag it under

Hold on to your heart

Even when your body's bitter

Hold on to your heart

Never let nobody take it over

Ever take it over

Ever take it over from you

There's a call on the phone

You don't even recognize the number

It's an old episode

Of tryna put the lightning on the monster

Of the life you have led

That is always a mess

Are you dreamin' or dead?

Thought there ghosts in your chest?

Are you always so restless?

Yes, you are

Is that hard?

Hold on to your heart

Hold it high above flood waters

Hold on to your heart

Never let nobody drag it under

Hold on to your heart

Even when your body's bitter

Hold on to your heart

Never let nobody take it over

Ever take it over

Ever take it over from you

Is it all a game?

A bait and switch your brains

And follow your leaders to Hell

Is it all the same?

Vain, a love insane

Is drinkin' from a poison well

And I need a new skin for this old skeleton of mine

'Cause this one that I'm in's let me down once again

Over time

And I need new skin for this old skeleton of mine

'Cause this one that I'm in's let me down once again

Over time

Hold on to your heart

Hold it high above flood waters

Hold on to your heart

Never let nobody drag it under

Hold on to your heart

Even when the whole world's bitter

Hold on to your heart

Never let nobody take it over

Ever take it over

Ever take it over

Ever take it over

Ever take it over

Ever take it over

Ever take it over from you
