Just A Little Longer

I've watched my energies fade
I've seen my temples crumble
I have survived
I have survived

Can we hold on
Just a little longer
Just until I collect
All that is scattered
All that is shattered

I'm losing myself in chaos
I'm howling at the shadows
I think I'm still angry
I think I'm still gloomy

Can we hold on
Just a little longer
Just until I let out
All that I've been holding
All that I've been shaking

My fears have rattled my choices
My choices have rattled my grounds
I have surrendered
I have surrendered

Can we hold on
Just a little longer
Just until I fight for
All that is to win or
All that is to lose

I have known the conundrum
I have known the perils yet
I fell on the hard ground
While the love recocheted

Can we hold on
Just a little longer
Just until I find
All that is left of me
All that is left of you
