i'm holding on
and i'm afrad
of where my heart
might be laid

you kissed me once
i pulled away
you held me close
i couldn't stay

and i held on to the dreams
where life was better than it seems
i held on to the night
see nightmares covered my light
oh oh oh oh YEA
oh oh oh oh YEA oh oh oh yea

i left and i
watched you die
so painful
i wanted to cry

but i wasn't going to let go
this love is gone to know

and i held on to the dreams
where life was better than it seems
i held on to the night
se nightmares covered my light
oh oh oh oh YEA
oh oh oh oh YEA oh oh oh yea

don't let me sleep
while through my life you creep
up and SURPRISE
me with all these lies

oh oh why

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
