Hold Me Now - RED

Hold Me Now - RED

Lyrics:

Fall asleep to dreams of home

Where the waves are crashing

The only place I've ever known

Now the future has me

I see the fire in the sky

See it all around me

I said the past is dead

The life I had is gone

Said I won't give up

Until I see the sun

Hold me now

'Til the fear is leaving

I am barely breathing

Waking up and letting go

To the sound of angels

Am I alive or just a ghost?

Haunted by my sorrows

Hope is slipping through my hands

Gravity is taking hold

I said I'm not afraid

That I am brave enough

I will not give up

Until I see the sun

Hold me now

'Til the fear is leaving

I am barely breathing

Crying out

These tired wings are falling

I need you to catch me

As I burn

As I break

I can't take it anymore

I return to the place where

Where the water covers over everything

Rescue me somehow

Hold me now

'Til the fear is leaving

I am barely breathing

Crying out

These tired wings are falling

I need you to catch me

Hold me now

'Til the fear is leaving

I am barely breathing

I believe everyone needs someone in this world.

A strong shoulder,

a soldier or angel to call their own,

because so many of us are left on our own,

but we need to know there is a stronger power.

We need push back and scream,

forgive those who have wronged us,

and do the same to those we love.

Tears can fall for so long,

but fear can be diminished,

I am not here to promote world peace,

because world peace is just the root of the problem,

not for my eyes to have to witness crashing around me.

Waking up each day is a gift,

so I pledge to protect it,

I am not afraid,

I am brave enough,

just hold me now.

Fight back!

Push back!

Tear through the barriers we are given,

and be proud to live in the world we live in.

Because when our legs fail,

when we have hit our end,

I want to be happy knowing I have given it my all.
