Holding On Lyrics by Simple Plan

Simple Plan

2008

[Verse 1]
Once again
I'm falling to my knees
(I try to escape because I just can't take it)
Now this feeling is spreading like a disease
(I fake another day and the wheel keeps turning)
This place is so pathetic
Doesn't anybody get it
Is there anybody home? (Is there anybody home?)
There's nothing left
We're just a shadow of what we used to be

[Chorus 1]
In the night there's a fire in my eyes
And this paradise has become a place we've come to cry
When I open your letter, the words make it better
It takes it all away
(Oh, whoa, whoa) It keeps me holding on
(Oh, whoa) It keeps me holding on

[Verse 2]
Here we are pretending we're ok
(You can say what you want, but you still can't fool me)
The life we're living, it's all masquerade
(I try to smile, but I can't remember how)
So how did we get so jaded
Is it so complicated
To not give up on me?

[Chorus 1]
In the night there's a fire in my eyes
And this paradise has become a place we've come to cry
When I open your letter, the words make it better
It takes it all away
(Oh, whoa, whoa)

[Chorus 2]
It keeps me holding on
Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you
It keeps me holding on
Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you

[Bridge]
You keep me holding on
You keep me holding on

[Chorus 1]
In the night there's a fire in my eyes
And this paradise has become a place we've come to cry
When I open your letter, the words make it better
It takes it all away
(Oh, whoa, whoa)

[Chorus 2]
It keeps me holding on
Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you
It keeps me holding on
Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you
It keeps me holding on
