Hold the Light

It's a tired drumbeat in my chest

I left all the ones I loved the best

Loneliness was stripping off her dress

And that's alright

I was getting used to cutting ties

And rubbing out your crayon drawing eyes

Said you didn't wanna stay the night

And that's alright

When it gets colder, it's alright

We're lonely soldiers in the deep, dark night

I wanted to know ya, I wanted to fight

Don't have to be over, oh-oh-oh

Just hold the light

Hold the light, oh-oh-oh

Just hold the light

Hold the light, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

A comedy is crying in my head

Sinking while I'm filling up with dread

Try sometimes to save you from my bed

'Cause I'm a lie, oh-oh, woah

I'm terrified you've seen my fake machine

'Cause skin is only fleeting velveteen

Bouncing on the stormiest of seas

'Til morning light

When it gets colder, it's alright

We're lonely soldiers in the deep, dark night

I wanted to know ya, I wanted to fight

Don't have to be over, oh-oh-oh

Just hold the light

Hold the light, oh-oh-oh

Just hold the light

Hold the light (Hold the light)

Hold the light

Hold the light

Hold the light

Hold the light

When it gets colder, it's alright

We're lonely soldiers in the deep, dark night

I wanted to know ya, I wanted to fight

Don't have to be over, oh-oh-oh

Just hold the light

Hold the light, oh-oh-oh

Just hold the light

Hold the light

Ooh (Hold the light)

Ooh (Hold the light)

Ooh (Hold the light)

Ooh (Hold the light)

Ooh (Hold the light)

Ooh (Hold the light)

Hold the light

Hold the light
