War On Drugs, The - Holding On Lyrics






Once I was alive and I could feel
I was holding on to you
And I redefined the way I looked at dawn inside of you

I went down a crooked highway
Alone outside the line
I've been rejected, now the man has turned and I'm out of time

Ain't no way I'm gonna last
Hiding in the seams, I can't move the past
Feel like I'm about to crash
Riding on my line, I keep keeping on

Once we were apart and I could see red
Never trying to turn back time
Never meant to bring my pain to the front and into your life

Now I'm headed down a different road
Can we walk it side by side?
Is an old memory just another way of saying goodbye?

Ain't no way I'm gonna last
Hiding in the seams, I can't move the past
Feel like I'm about to crash
Riding the same line, I keep keeping on

And he never gonna change
He never gonna learn
I keep moving on the path, yeah
Holding on to mine

When you talk about the past
What are we talking of?
Did I let go too fast?
Was I holding on too long?

Ain't no truths from the past
As silent as the sea
And it holding on too long
But you're right in front of me

And I'm moving on a cast
Shadows on my seam
I keep moving with the changes, yeah
Ooh

    RIP my relationship. Me from Virginia and my ex in Texas. Went to see her and spent the best moments of my life with her. Worked hard and sold everything I had to move down there to be with her for good. Then after we fell apart I drove non-stop right to where she worked with yellow roses from Virginia... For my Yellow Rose of Texas. Spent 3 days looking for her to only have my heart broken again. All I have is the memories.... And her last words from our time together being "go home so you can come back home to me".

    Man I always mistake his voice for Bryan Adam's. Revisited them after quite some time now. I always listened to them but never watched a video. Beautiful video filled with positivity. Better than therapy. I have been through dark times and am probably still in a dark place but this helps. Trying to take baby steps toward the light. Cheers everyone!

  74. E.... L....

    a masterpiece in all senses

  75. J.... B....

    Not the type of video I expected for this song, but it was really nice... sad, but nice. The main guy is a good actor as well. This song gets me in my feelz. The lyrics speak volumes about a past relationship I had. Such an amazing song, and band.

  76. L.... F....

    The girl in the Cafe is the Daughter of the Woman in the picture at the end. i'd like to think so anyway. beautiful
