Hold Me Now

We do what we can
But these bruises
They heal by themselves
We wait for the lord
But the devil
Sits right by your side
We ask for the truth
But the lies
They make us feel safe
And I heard on the news
We won’t be here
For much longer

So hold me now
There’s much we can worry
Our heads about
There’s one thing I know
It’s here and now
So hold me now

The streets are bare
Where once we complained
Of the crowd
And our chests are sore
From pounding and screaming aloud
We ask for the truth
But reality comes with its scars
You know healing ourselves alone
Can only get us so far

So hold me now
There’s much we can worry
Our heads about
If there’s one thing I know
It’s here and now
So hold me now

So hold me now
There’s much we can worry
Our heads about
Just know that I love you
It’s all I can do
So hold me now

If it’s darker than it is now
I’ll try to be brave somehow
And there’s nowhere I can go
But straight to you

So hold me now
There’s much we can worry
Our heads about
If there’s one thing I know
It’s here and now
So hold me now
