Holding On

Holding hands with the devil
Taken to a higher level
Leaving everything disheveled
What have I become?

On the surface I try to keep it all together
Underneath is a demon watching like no other
Telling me it’ll keep me safe, if I don’t strain the tether
I keep holding on

Hear it
Whisper
Fissure
My sanity I
Fear it
Will consume my
Life I
Ask why me I
Tell myself to
Just keep holding on

Think back into the day
When I was lost and so afraid
I’ve turned a darker shade
Can I let it go?

Yea

I think my body is turning
Everything is fading grey
I’m almost gone are you certain, I’ll be okay?
Taking control becomes the remedy
Screaming victims have become my favorite melody, oh yea

If you side with me, there’s no doubt
That the crime will be payed, don’t shout
Taking control becomes the remedy
I’m symbiotic, lacking empathy, the enemy

Hear it
Whisper
Fissure
My sanity I
Fear it
Will consume my
Life I
Ask why me I
Tell myself to
Just keep holding on

Think back into the day
When I was lost and so afraid
(Never had a home)
I’ve turned a darker shade
(Never had a home, can I let it go?)
Can I let it go?
I keep holding on
