Hanging On Lyrics by KNOWER

Life

2016

[Hook]
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on

Hah, hanging on

[Verse 1]
Yeah just scraping
Whatever you make gets taken
Doing the best that you can to get by
Days get longer
A choice, there is no other
Go along or go under, 'cuz it's time

[Verse 2]
Wheel ain't stopping
You're on and you're locked in
In the end you get one thing: nothing
Pain gets stronger
Life on your shoulder
Go along or go under, 'cuz it's time

[Chorus]
It's time
To get a real life
And get a 9 to 5
Until the end
It's time
Forever on the edge
Just working for your thread
Until the end

[Hook]
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on

Hanging on

[Verse 3]
Ooh keep scraping
All of your time gets taken
Doing the best that you can to get by
Nothing other
Never stop to wonder
Go along or go under, 'cuz it's time

[Verse 4]
Blood's all sucked out
Eyes been poked out
In the end you get one thing: nothing
Pain gets stronger
Life on your shoulder
Go along or go under, 'cuz it's time

[Chorus]
It's time
To get a real life
And get a 9 to 5
Until the end
It's time
Forever on the edge
Just working for your thread
Until the end

[Hook]
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, on and on
Hah, hah, hanging on

[Bridge]
It's time
Right where you're supposed to be
Living somebody's dream until the end
It's time
Right where you're supposed to be
Thinking that you are free
Until the end

[Hook]
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, on and on

Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on
Hah, hah, hanging on

[Outro]
On and on and on
On and on

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
