Something about the deep of night, a good place to sit and hide, to keep the thoughts from beating me once more. Oh, I try, I try to try. It keeps me down, I try to fight. But when I turn my back, they’re there staring me down. I need someone to hold my hand. Someone to be there in the end. Is it you? Don’t wake me up, just hold me tight, let me escape one more time. I want to be free from the chase once more. I lose my breath, it’s hard to see all that’s around in front of me, but I will stay fighting, I will stand my ground. When there’s nothing left to hold on, when there’s nothing left to hold on, when there’s nothing left, don’t let go.
