about

hanging on, alone, hoping for help in the worst of times

lyrics

I fell in a pit where it's void of love
I shake in the cold, no sky above
Can't feel the sun, can't see a star
Can't make my dreams dream very far

But I hold on to my heart and I hold on to my hope
And I hold out for a hand to hand me a rope
And I hold on to be saved

I sink in my fear, please I need more time
My ears to the dark listen for signs
No sound, no help, no trace of life
No one's out there to hear my cries

But I hold on to my heart and I hold on to my hope
And I hold out for a hand to hand me a rope
And I hold on to be saved

What if my prayers are not answered
What if this world’s at an end
Will I be left in this darkness, tortured again

Still I hold on to my heart and I hold on to my hope
And I hold out for a hand to hand me a rope
And I hold on to be saved
I hold on and I wait
And I hold on to be saved
