Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The world's on fire

Pull me closer

Hold me tight

Let the light shine through us

Whisper you love me

Wrap your arms around me

Take down my hair, untie my shoes, undress me

[PreChorus]

I'm going crazy, I'm half out of my mind

I can't believe my ears, believe my eyes

I woke up crying, got the fright of my life

Everything burns until we make this right

[Chorus]

Hope don't fail me

Your arms around me

Faith don't shake me

And don't desert me

[Chorus]

Hold

Don't let me go

Just hold on tight

For our dear lives

[Refrain]

We keep running, running, running

Running, running, running

[Verse 2]

You call it fear, I call it madness

The monster sleeps, it feeds on sadness

And when it wakes, it terrifies me

No one to love, no one to love me

[PreChorus]

I'm going crazy, I'm half out of my mind

I can't believe my ears, believe my eyes

I woke up crying, got the fright of my life

Everything burns until we make this right now

[Chorus]

Hold

Don't let me go

Just hold on tight

For our dear lives

[Refrain]

We keep running, running, running

We keep running, running, running

We keep running, running, running

Running, running, running

[Bridge]

I checked the door, I called your Ma

I checked the windows, I called the law

I called the neighbours, I called the cops

I called the papers, I called the dogs off

But there's the space and there's the tear

There's the hole you left here and here

There's not a lot that we can do

Everything ends for you and me

[Chorus]

Hold

Don't let me go

Just hold on tight

For our dear lives

[Chorus]

Hold

Don't let me go

Just hold on tight

For our dear lives

[Refrain]

We keep running, running, running

We keep running, running, running

We keep running, running, running

Running, running, running

[Refrain]

We keep running

Running, running, running

Just running, running, running

We keep running, running, running

We keep running, running, running

[Outro]

Hold
