It’s the colour of my voice, it’s the weight inside my brain;
This life was not my choice, will you wash away the stains?
If we can only strike the things within our sights,
Keep your life that simple to make it all seem right
And then keep on holding on for dear life,
We’re still just holding on for dear life.
You’re messing up again, you’ve lost your only friend;
Things are not so simple, you just can’t seem to win,
That’s the way it is and that’s the way it’s been;
Try to understand it, just where to begin
And then keep on holding
Holding on for dear life,
Just keep on holding,
Holding on for dear life.
As long as you’re breathing I will be the air,
And after I’m gone you will still feel me there.
I can solve all your problems and let you know I care.
So you have to make a choice to overcome the pain
And listen to the voice to bring about some change,
Cause that’s the way it is, and that’s the way it’s been;
Try to understand it, it’s the only way to win.
And keep on holding,
Holding on for dear life,
Just keep holding,
Holding on for dear life.
As long as you’re breathing I will be the air,
And after I’m gone you will still feel me there.
I can solve all your problems and let you know I care.
If the landscape is bare, you can still find a view;
The way to repair and find a path that’s true, you got to wash it all away (Got to wash it all away). 2x
As long as you’re breathing I will be the air,
And after I’m gone you will still feel me there.
I can solve all your problems and let you know I care.
It’s the colour of my voice, it’s the weight inside my brain;
This life was not my choice, will you wash away the stains?
If we can only strike the things within our sights,
Keep your life that simple to make it all seem right
