Why Do We Hold

[Verse 1]
Regardless of darkness and light, I have chosen
The tables, turning around me, such a burden

[Verse 2]
But the light is upon me and you, I will follow
North or south, I will ignite you, you're hollow

[Pre-Chorus]
Incinerating, the shield is fading
Mortal cadence rises for you, one more time
Desperation
Becomes obsession
I have paintings of you, I'll draw the pain

[Chorus]
Hold on, onto the light
Cast by the angels that take flight
Why do we hold?
Look down, down onto me
Desperate to find the holiest space
Why do we hold?
So that I can live to see you again

[Verse 3]
But without this incarnate we claim, still receding
For the violence never solved anything, 'cause I'm still bleeding

[Pre-Chorus]
Intoxication, controlled possessions
Hold in till my face turns blue, one more time
Crazed obstruction
Show my contortions
I have paintings of you, I'll draw the pain

[Chorus]
Hold on, onto the light
Cast by the angels that take flight
Why do we hold?
Look down, down onto me
Desperate to find the holiest space
Why do we hold?
So that I can live to see you again

[Bridge]
This is my own vengeance
I will live for this day
(To hold you in my arms)
I will bleed for you

[Chorus]
Hold on, onto the light
Cast by the angels that take flight
Why do we hold?
Look down, down onto me
Desperate to find the holiest space
Why do we hold?
So that I can live to see you again

[Outro]
This is my own vengeance
