Hold On
Sjr1000 Sep 2014
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to the light inside
before it's gone
Hold on to the love you feel.

Darkness is coming around the bend
The plagues are moving in on the winds
The wars are raging in retaliation’s name
The sun is burning,
shooting solar flares our way.
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to the wisdom of your mind

Life is precious
Comes and goes
Time is an illusion
That we all know
Lovers, they also come and go
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to the light inside
The mandalas in the faces of the flowers
call your name.

Against all odds
Against the deranged machinations at the hands of the gods
We’re mere humans
Standing at the rim of the stars
Staring out into space
In this brief
Time and place  
Throwing sand at the waves
To  protect the
Sand castle walls we built,
As children at the ocean.
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on to the light inside
Childhood joy and wonder
Before it to comes and is gone.

I weep these tears
For the innocent sorrow of all mankind
Who has always been so sick inside
And never remembered to hold on
Hold on
Hold on
To the momentary flickers of all those lights inside

Hold on
Hold on
We all know what’s coming
Darkness to each and every one.

Let’s make this pact
In this room
We’ll hold on to the light inside
Until the last candle is done
And the last breath blows out the light
And whispers lovingly
“Good night.”

Hold on

Hold Me

Hold me when i say i give up
Hold me when i say i can no longer continue
Hold me when i walk away
Hold me when i say i no longer love you
Hold me pls
Hold me i beg
Hold me

Hold me because all this time im lying
Hold me for denying that im okay that everything is fine
Hold me for prentending
Hold me for smiling even if i want to break down
Hold me for im still crying evrytime im alone

Hold me for i can no longer hold me
Hold me for i feel sorry for myself for wanting you to stay
Hold me for feeling this way
Hold me because all this time i want you to hold me
Hold me.
