Emery - A Sin To Hold On To Lyrics






When I saw you walking by
I could not believe my eyes
Underneath the city lights
Reflecting all your curves just right
Can I have your attention
For a moment
I need to just say something
If you've got the time
Then I got the reason for the sin
If you've got the time
Then I got the reason for the sin

Have you been looking out
Have you been watching my back
My patients is running out
And I can't seem to stay on the right track

You're wanting eyes
keep me coming back for more and more each time
Lets get this right
'Cause there is no second chance after tonight
No chance after tonight

I know you've got it in you
Won't you let it out (Let it out)
Dig a little deeper and I know you'll find strength inside
If we can be the ones to hold on, to stay strong
Maybe we can make a difference in somebody life
In somebody

I won't be part of the riot
I won't be part of the revolution
You think you keeping us quite
We're not the problem but we are the solution

I won't be part of the riot
I won't be part of the revolution
You think you keeping us quite
We're not the problem but we are the solution

Lets get this right
'Cause there are no second chances

I know you've got it in you
Won't you let it out (Let it out)
Dig a little deeper and I know you'll find strength inside
If we can be the ones to hold on, to stay strong
Maybe we can make a difference in somebody's life

I know you've got it in you
Won't you let it out (Let it out)
Dig a little deeper and I know you'll find strength inside
If we can be the ones to hold on, to stay strong
Maybe we can make a difference in somebody's life
In somebody

  3. T.... F....

    Dig a little deeper and I know you'll find strength inside
    If we can be the ones to hold on, to stay strong
    Maybe we can make a difference in somebody life...

  4. A.... B....

    I know you got it in you won't you let it out?
    Dig a little deeper and I know you'll find strength inside,
    If we could be the ones to hold on, to stay strong.
    Then maybe we could make a difference in somebody's life,
    wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

  5. r.... ....

    bringin it bacckkkk!

  6. K.... s....

    Love this song! <3
    Emery is the best!

  7. o.... ....

    Been listening to these guys for a long time. None of their stuff never gets old..

  8. T.... M....

    One of the only bands that I love every single song on their albums

  9. S.... ....

    Who cares if they are, or are not. Their music speaks to the human condition--not to God. Thats the reason i like them.

  10. B.... H....

    who the fuck cares
    seriously

  11. A.... ....

    I love Emery because with them, you never know if you're going to get a screaming song, a song like "I never got to see the west coast" or anything in between. I love Emery and all their music!

  12. 1.... ....

    Who cares what their genre or religious affiliation is? It's no reason for debate. Just appreciate this awesome music and hope that others can love it as much as you do :3

  13. W.... ....

    Emotion = great music.
    Just sayin'.

  14. A.... E....

    @TREVMAC44 Did I say they were? It was merely a comparison I made to bands that make Christian subject matter who don't want to be labeled a Christian band. You aren't labeled as such, but you are a Christian band. And yes, you could. But as a music genre, emo has evolved to mean a certain usage of emotion in the music. And some people associate that with this band, despite them not being labeled as emo. And that's their opinion.

  15. A.... C....

    one of devins best vocals

  16. J.... ....

    LSS galore!! \m/

  17. D.... ....

    does it matter what they are its great music either way

  18. A.... E....

    @Bloodtoxx Emotive- "characterized by or pertaining to emotion; productive of or directed toward the emotions."
    So, thank you for proving my point.
    Ahh, see, that's the thing. Just because they aren't considered "emo" doesn't mean it can't apply to them.
    Just like bands who say, "we aren't a Christian band!" When almost all of their songs pertain to or reference Christianity or religion in some way.
    But they aren't considered a "Christian" band by the media.

  19. h.... ....

    thanx for the explanations , I'm mexican and sometimes it's a bit difficult to catch the meaning of their songs, but that make them more interesting :)

  20. B.... ....

    @FreneticFacade Emo isn't short for emotional. It's Emotive Rock. And the type of music you explained can be applied to most bands that aren't considered "emo"

  21. p.... ....

    @Bufferring1 I know.

  22. A.... E....

    @Bloodtoxx Ummm...Yes. Yes it does. Emo music is defined as, " characterized by melodic musicianship and expressive, often confessional lyrics." And is short for, you guessed it, emotional.

  23. B.... ....

    @pinkteddy96 Oh, then they must be! Because you know, this isn't the internet or anything, where people can say whatever they want.

  24. p.... ....

    According to a website, Emery is Emocore.

  25. B.... ....

    @Wootguy238 Quite.

  26. B.... D....

    @Bloodtoxx aren't you smart!

  27. B.... ....

    @DistructionByDesign Emotional music =/= emo music.

  28. S.... ....

    My friend had this on his ipod and i fell in love with it♥ i swear i have it on replay!

  29. i.... ....

    @KiBug27 Hahahaha. Yes. Kinda creeped out for a second.. (:

  30. K.... C....

    @imsofunnyitsnotfunny are we really? (:

  31. i.... ....

    This song reminds me of my best friend. Her names Kiley. We're goin to space someday and making a movie. Just sayinn.

  32. D.... P....

    This song is beyond amazing.

  33. L.... ....

    which one person decided to be a jerk and dislike this song?????????? *shakes head*

  34. N.... H....

    @jocoby1616 My brother's band played a show with Hawthorn heights, Jonny Craig, and The Color Morale.
    It was mind-blowing o.O

  35. A.... C....

    love this song

  36. s.... ....

    the lines "maybe we can make a difference in somebody's life" HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT RELATE TO HAVING SEX you fucking idiots

  37. T.... ....

    @thatonekewlguy He's talking about having sex.

  38. S.... C....

    ugh not only does emery have amazing voices, but when you actually look into the lyrics it makes all of their songs fantastic, and just cant get enough of em ^_^

  39. M.... ....

    perfect just perfect

  40. N.... S....

    Best band on the planet.

  41. J.... O....

    Devin sounds great in the beginning.

  42. B.... ....

    Its bigger than that, the whole album is about making changes, but not just to him. He's talking about changing the whole world, even if its just by helping one person.

  43. B.... ....

    FUCKING RIGHT!!!

  44. x.... ....

    @StopLookListen17 Yeah, the album's about treading-water-like&touchy times in a relationship, and his broken heart prevailing anyway? The lady seems to be unaffected by/indifferent to his jumping/falling in the water, and his drowning on the EP's cover.

  45. x.... ....

    Anyone ever try to analize the meaning behind the EP and this album's covers? I think it could be really deep(:

  46. m.... ....

    this is one of my favorite songs by my favorite band. they're just wicked good

  47. J.... F....

    I didn't really like I'm Only A Man. It showed a band trying to go in way too many directions at once. WBHP was a great EP, and this is amazing.

  48. a.... ....

    somebody's
    quiet

  49. a.... ....

    patience*

  50. b.... ....

    i can possibly mean im only a man

  51. J.... G....

    0:30 emery rocks!!!

  52. M.... T....

    I totally agree.

  53. b.... ....

    great song!! took me by surprise after their last albums dissapointment

  54. H.... M....

    this and in a win win situation best songs ever

  55. Z.... B....

    this is amazing...but of course it is...cause its emery..

  56. d.... ....

    My favorite band :]

    Sin to hold on to
    Edge of the world

    Curbside goodbye
