Lyrics:

You were a lighthouse in a season of darkness
The spring in my step when my soul had fell hardest
Pocketed change saving what’s left from the mess of it all
Love lost, repeated and dearly departed

You’re the strength to my weak
Countless days I can’t sleep
Numbered nights without you
Leaves a war within me
But I know that I don’t have a choice 
But to try and move on

I’m still holding on
Still going strong
Still wishing you were here back in my arms
Still wishing I could let go but I’m too scared to fall and deep dive in this darkness alone
I’m still holding on

You heard my heart In the war of my silence
Saw through the walls of the fortress I hide in
With grace and great ease, weathering every storm of my soul
You turned every rain cloud to bright silver linings

You’re the strength to my weak
Countless days I can’t sleep
Numbered nights without you
Leaves a war within me
But I know that I don’t have a choice 
But to try and move on

I’m still holding on
Still going strong
Still wishing you were here back in my arms
Still wishing I could let go but I’m too scared to fall and deep dive in this darkness alone

Avoiding the jump my fear craving the fall
As you’re opening up I keep closing the door
Why do I feel exposed
Do not know where to go
Feelings unbearable
Soul tied
Lying to myself there’s a king deep inside
Fighting off all of the scars that I hide
Bury my pain open up to my pride 
My finger tips fight for grip on your life
Never been scared of leaving before
As you’re opening up I keep closing the door
Why do I feel exposed
Do not know where to go
Feelings unbearable
Soul tied
Lying to myself there’s a king deep inside
Fighting off all of the scars that I hide
Bury my pain open up to my pride 
My finger tips fight for grip on your life

I’m still holding on
Still going strong
Still wishing you were here back in my arms
Still wishing I could let go but I’m too scared to fall and deep dive in this darkness alone
I’m still holding on
Still going strong
Still wishing you were here back in my arms
Still wishing I could let go but I’m too scared to fall and deep dive in this darkness alone
I’m still holding on
