Hold Fast - The Bastard Suns

To everyone who's hurting To those who've had enough To all the undeserving That should cover all of us Please do not let go I promise there is hope Hold fast Help is on the way Hold fast He's come to save the day What I've learned in my life One thing greater than my strife Is His grasp So hold fast Will this season ever pass Can we stop this ride Will we see the sun at last Or could this be our lot in life Please do not let go I promise you there's hope CHORUS Bridge You may think you're all alone And there's no way that anyone could know What you're going through But if you only hear one thing Just understand that we are all the same Searching for the truth The truth of what we're soon to face Unless someone comes to take our place Is there anyone All we want is to be free Free from our captivity Lord Here He comes

Hver gang eg går her aleine på kvelden Finnes det et lys i enden av tunnelen Helt siden sist, har hatt så lyst å visst Ka du tenkte på og kor du e' no Ingen har fortalt, det var det som var så rart Eg venter på et svar, kor kan eg få svar Aldri aleine, eg visste ikkje om Vi var alltid der, men eg visste ikkje om Kordan kunne eg bli så dum som det Eg visste bare ikkje kor eg skulle se Eg tok feil, gikk et skritt feil vei Hvis eg ber på mine knær Ka om eg ber på mine knær Kysser du fremdeles din hånd Når du hører klokkene slå tolv Min kjære hold fast, min kjære hold fast Eg e' nærmere enn du tror Kysser du fremdeles din hånd Når du hører klokkene slå tolv Min kjære hold fast, min kjære hold fast Eg e' nærmere enn du tror Please, vær så snill Gi meg en sjanse til Eg har lært av mine feil Og det skal aldri skje igjen Please, vær så snill Gi meg en sjanse til Eg har lært av mine feil Og det skal aldri skje igjen Ha'kje vært den samme siden du forlot meg Gi meg en sjanse til Det finnes bare en i meg og det e' deg Det er deg Ha'kje vært den samme siden du forlot meg Gi meg en sjanse til Det finnes bare en i meg og det e' deg Please, vær så snill Bare please, vær så snill Bare please, vær så snill Gi meg en sjanse til Please, vær så snill Bare please, vær så snill Bare please, vær så snill Gi meg en sjanse til Please, vær så snill Gi meg en sjanse til Eg har lært av mine feil Og det skal aldri skje igjen Please, vær så snill Gi meg en sjanse til Eg har lært av mine feil Og det skal aldri skje igjen Kysser du fremdeles din hånd Når du hører klokkene slå tolv Min kjære hold fast, min kjære hold fast Eg e' nærmere enn du tror Kysser du fremdeles din hånd Når du hører klokkene slå tolv Min kjære hold fast, min kjære hold fast Eg e' nærmere enn du tror Åh, åh, åh, åh Gi meg en sjanse til Åh, åh, åh, åh Gi meg en sjanse til Åh, åh, åh, åh Gi meg en sjanse til Åh, åh, åh, åh

Treading through the waves, barely keeping pace I don't even know where to find my place Sewing seeds of doubt, in one ear and out When the hell does it stop? Murder in the streets, tyrants sending fleets Victims painted red, they're getting in our heads Fabricated tales, make us fight ourselves To push consumer sales, oh the irony Tell me how to reconcile what i see from outside the fold Propaganda weaponized from side to side, or so I'm told There's no faith When your words don't fall in place With any sense of stability Deceived by our eyes and our ears Left alone with ourselves 'Till we disappear They lure you in with insincere Platitudes that feed your fears A prophet and a preacher is that really what you see? Indoctrinate the faithful who you willingly mislead One by one by one they follow Feed the hollow, repeat the cycle again There's no faith When your words don't fall in place With any sense of stability Deceived by our eyes and our ears Left alone with ourselves 'Till we disappear One by one One by one Disappear One by one One by one One by one, they follow One by one, they follow One by one, they follow One by one Losing touch with reality An overwhelming numb So let me be While you're... Broken Shallow hearted Narcissistic Self destructive Paralytic Saprophytic So sadistic Fucking monsters

Don't even dip your toe in the water, unless you plan to swim Don't give a fucking inch, unless you're ready to give in Don't even leave the nest unless you plan to fly And no matter what Never say die! I said no matter what, Never say die! One more time, no matter what Never say, never say die! Don't ever say die! People will persecute you for the strangest things. They'll hold you underneath their thumbs and try to clip your wings. But the only way they win is if you quit. So never give in, and don't take no shit! Don't even dip your toe in the water, unless you plan to swim Don't give a fucking inch, unless you're ready to give in Don't even leave the nest unless you plan to fly And no matter what Never say die!
