Repeat during Em part of verse
The patriots hang flags outside
That's how they do it nationwide
But back home we don't care so much
I might be wrong but that's how it looks
We listen to the sound of our minds
I feel as though I'm losing time
With hands of glory pushing rhymes
Never been so far before
I drove for days and weeks and more
Hard shoulder where the chaos lies
An invitation to the darker side
And I'm holding on, I am holding on
I am holding on as my life it slips away
Holding on, I am holding on
I am holding on as my life it slips away
Spinning out my mind it twists
More worries than I can seem to list
I've served my purpose true and well
but I haven't yet got much to tell
I listen to the panic in my nerves
An agonizing journey home
With empty hands I stand alone
Face my family, face my friends
I'd better turn around and try again
As I'm holding on, I am holding on
I am holding on as my life it slips away
Holding on, I am holding on
I am holding on as my life it slips away, my life it slips away
Holding on, I am holding on
I am holding on as my life it slips away
Holding on, I am holding on
I am holding on, I am holding on
Holding on as my life it slips away, my life it slips away
