Headway Lyrics by Painting Promises

Holding on to Who We Were

2016

[Verse 1]
I'm holding on to everything I've ever known
But I don't feel the same
The years will pass, we will grow old
Another story goes untold
I feel so lost without you
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm holding on to better things this time
Because I know where I belong
[Chorus]
Is this the way out?
'Cause I'm searching and I gotta know now
Lift my faith up so I'll never look down
Is this the way out?
'Cause I'm longing for the truth without doubt
Lift my head up so I'll never look down
[Verse 2]
Haunted by all the memories, the pain that you've been through
I can tell through your eyes
Let it out, you don't need to feel this way
'Cause the outcome is so much greater
Make your days count, don't count your days
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm holding on to better things this time
Because I know where I belong
[Chorus]
Is this the way out?
'Cause I'm searching and I gotta know now
Lift my faith up so I'll never look down
Is this the way out?
'Cause I'm longing for the truth without doubt
Lift my head up so I'll never look down
[Bridge]
SHOW ME WHAT YOU STAND FOR
(Let's go!)
Scream for the world
When no one has a voice to speak, tell them what you wanna see
Say what you wanna say
We've got it all, but we want more
Scream to the world
You came here just to claim the throne
You're living for a better day
I've come to terms with the things I can't change
And if there's anything I've learned from this
Is that it's okay
To not be okay
[Chorus]
Is this the way out?
'Cause I'm searching and I gotta know now
Lift my faith up so I'll never look down
Is this the way out?
'Cause I'm longing for the truth without doubt
Lift my head up so I'll never look down
