He lives a solitary life
Round and round like a carousel ride
And time is slowly passing by
And he just sits and wonders why

He feels the same as every other man does
He numbs the pain until it all wears off
He hangs around until the night comes on

Always knew there was something more to life
Just a matter of time till his chance comes by
By and by he’s more and more unwired
And he can’t understand why

She breathes the city in at night
Drinking in all the neon of the lights
Every time that she moves she’s electrified
And she never wonders why

We said our last goodbyes to the state 
As we sailed off into the night 
And maybe it's some cruel trick of fate 
But baby I'm feeling alright 

Hold on like you’ve never held anything before 
Where’s the mystery when all the meaning is on the wall 
We bear these injuries that remind us of how we fall 
It’s 14 hours more to California 
Hold on baby 

Face to face with my regrets 
I chose the lesser of two demons 
Looking back now I understand 
I drove this nail through my own hand

Hold On
