Hanging On Lyrics by Tom Billington

Make No Bones

2010

Don't look down
Fight this feeling
It seems you’re just
Soldiering on
Despite my claims
It gets you nowhere
There's not enough
Lifeline for us all
But there's a noose in this cord
It hangs in the balance
At the right moment
It could all fall down
So I bite my tongue
To make an incision
Just to feel something
It’s better than hiding
Hanging on (Hanging on)
For dear life... (for dear life...)
Hanging on (Hanging on)
For tonight... (for tonight...)
We'll escape
We will get away
We'll escape
And I won't try to fix the wall
'Cause the bricks are too broken
And we've barely spoken (we've barely spoken)
Since Christmas. (Since Christmas.)
And you don't come when I call
Does the world revolve around (Does the world revolve around)
This confusion that you found? (This confusion that you found?)
Hanging on (Hanging on)
For dear life... (for dear life...)
Hanging on (Hanging on)
For tonight... (for tonight...)
We belong (We belong)
Together. (together.)
We belong (We belong)
To the night. (to the night.)
Na na-n-na ah. (Na na-n-na ah.)
Na na na, ha. (Na na na, ha.)
Say something --
Not the same old pattern
I feel your blood
Boiling over and over
Shot down in flames
With eyes of fire
All the right words (All the right words)
In all the wrong orders. (in all the wrong orders.)
Hanging on (Hanging on)
For dear life... (for dear life...)
Hanging on (Hanging on)
For tonight... (for tonight...)
We belong (We belong)
Together. (together.)
We belong (We belong)
To the night. (to the night.)
Na na na, la. (Na na na, la.)
Na na-n-na, ah. (Na na-n-na, ah.)
Na na na, ha, ah... (Na na na, ha.)
It’s the not knowing;
It’s the not knowing
It's the not knowing;
It’s the not knowing
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing. (it’s the not knowing.)
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing. (it's the not knowing.)
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing. (it's the not knowing.)
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing. (it's the not knowing.)
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing! (it's the not knowing.)
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing! (it's the not knowing.)
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing! (it's the not knowing.)
It's the not knowing; (It's the not knowing;)
It's the not knowing! (it's the not knowing...)
