Still Holding On.
Out to the horizon, across the devil sea
watching for some land but it's nowhere in sight.
You thought you could break me, but I ain't built that way.
There ain't no fair play, just the wrong and right.
Just as a feather drops quiet to the ground,
I will rise to my feet again.
(chorus) After the stains of my memory erases,
I'm still holding on.
I've looked for shelter in all the wrong places,
I'm still holding on.
All I know is I'm not a prisoner of your love anymore.
When is the point when you finally reach enough?
I didn't know that question until today.
I thought I knew myself just a little bit better,
that I could wash all the pain away.
Voices get louder as time is standing still.
There's nowhere to go when the passion is gone.
(chorus)
Move like a drifter out on the barren ground.
I won't waste my time no more.
You fooled me once, you won't fool me again.
Now I learned to just lock the door.
Under the surface there is no giving in.
I won't walk that road again.
(chorus)
Next song: Looking Out The Window.
