Hold On To My Pain

And it happens to me like it happens to you
And it gives them the hope to survive
Light is crashing down here passing everyone through
Weak belief to the blind empty night

In my dreams I shall see road we're going today
Life that's dripping on back seat so red
And this wired machine planted into the clay
Let you breathe... till you give all you had

Hold on to my pain
Hold on to the vain
Still there's no one who'd wait for us
There should be the end
But the grain of sand
In the world is a thing I trust

Someone comes to this life shone with beauty and pride
And his dole is to harvest delight
Someone else is to fight and to suffer the night
How I wish you had never this plight

I am nothing inside but the muscle and will
I imagine my presence, my part
Little bird flown to me from the fresh barrow hill
Don't foretell me! I know where to start

Hold on to my pain
Hold on to the vain
Still there's no one who'd wait for us
There should be the end
But the grain of sand
In the world is a thing I trust

Fires run in my eyes and the lanterns outside
Steamy windows of scattering car
Yet today is not gone, yet tomorrow abides
Time of sanity ever so far.

Sing a song here with me though the scarlet will bleed
As it gives you the hope to survive
Light has crashed down on me in the darkness I greet
Spilling over the straightening rive

Hold on to my pain
Hold on to the vain
Still there's no one who'd wait for us
There should be the end
But the grain of sand
In the world is a thing I trust
