Keep On

Keep on holding on Keep on holding on Keep on holding on Keep on holding on I'm holding on My mind is shredded but I'm holdin' on It's like I stepped into a sober song Six strings strummin' in the parlor room I won't be back there soon I'm holding on My voice is gone but I keep holding on I wish my shadow didn't run so long I picture you inside of something blue And when my vision blurs Keep on holding on Keep you holding on (Keep on) Keep on holding on (Keep you) Keep you holding on Keep on holding on Keep you holding on (Keep on) Keep on holding on (Keep you) Keep you holding on Suddenly it's four a.m And Ghost Town wants me dead again Thin-heeled shoes for aching feet A crumpled note from the last regime Spoke to God on the telephone She said "This party has no end" Rio's portal opens wide A long tube ride 'til we collide I was here before sunrise And though lost the shimmer of my younger eyes I've still got these long legs for the American guys Is there a way we can bridge the divide? Because the fuss gets in the way And this insomnia and sleep history It's just soul-deadening I just want to feel the oxygen sing That's all I'll ever need Keep on holding on Keep on holding on Keep on holding on Keep on holding on Oh Your face is tightened but I'm holding on Your head it's light But you keep holding on I wait my turn to meet both her and you And 'til my time is up I'm holding on The air is sparse but I keep holding on You know my grandma would've liked this song The loving fight that leaves a mark on you And when I feel for her
