Shake it, sh-shake it It keeps holding on and on And it's holding strong But it's holding on Even though I tried to make it Played the part, but I can't fake it It keeps holding on Even though I tried to break it Heaven knows that I can't shake it

There's your trouble There's your trouble, there's your trouble You keep seeing double with the wrong one You can't see I love you, you can't see she doesn't But you just keep holding on Should have all worked out But it didn't She should be here now But

Have I been holding on too strong? Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on? I'm not ready to go tonight Maybe I'm coming off all wrong It's only getting harder Talking to you without falling down And this house keeps getting darker We used

And so I can't keep this up I have had enough 'cause you can count me out Well I'm up and I don't know why But I guess that's all that counts Looking 'round as I'm holding my head And I'm in somebody's house The sun it hits like a punch in the face With

Keep holding, holding Head up, head up Your head up, head up I'm watching you run Run from the sidelines Take in a breath Fill in your lungs Keeping you alive

Why don't you come on Keep holding on Why don't you come on (why don't you come on) (Why don't you come on) Deep in your arms (deep in your arms) Where I belong (where I belong) I'm safe from harm (I'm safe from harm) I'll be your light after midnight

Baby, it's a fine line I'm holding on, you're holding back Can't you hear me knockin' at your door? But you're taking your sweet time In love, out of touch Baby, it's a real fine line Completely complacent So decidedly vacant I keep waiting for something

I'm not coming down I'm not coming down, oh I'll be up with the sun You can keep this suit of lights You gotta feel so guilty Got so much for so little Then you find that feeling just won't go away You're holding on to every little thing so tightly

I'm coming undone What looks so strong, so delicate I'm starting to suffocate And soon I anticipate That's right! Please strike! Keep holding on

So tell me, why do I keep holding on? Oh, why do I keep staring down the barrel of a loaded gun? Then tell me why can't I just can't let go? Somebody knows, then tell me She said she loved me, all night long I couldn't help but let her string my heart
