Hold On

It seems all my bridges are up in flames
And I cannot find a way
To cross this river of memories
Wasting time just standing here
We had a fire that could set ablaze
Burning up all the doubt and the shame
But those clouds moved in when the cold winds came
We fell victim, but when I
Close my eyes all I see are the memories like some distant dream
Take the loss with a grain of salt but I’m not fooling anybody
Am I this time?
We ruled that summer like kings and queens
Times that I hold close to me
Reckless and fallen for a dream
Heads held high till the morning
We had a vision, a place to breathe
Swore we’d never break the chains
But this life has never been a game
We fell victim, but when I
Close my eyes all I see are the memories like some distant dream
Take the loss with a grain of salt but we’re not fooling anybody
Are we this time?
Hold on to who we were, nothing can hold a candle
I’ll take away from what we’ve learned, keep the dreams closer
And now we’ve grown separate lives
And breaking the ice is getting harder
But there’s no need to waste our words
On what’s gone and over
We’re changing with the seasons, always changing
So how in the world did we think
That we’d stay the same, we’re changing
And though we’ve grown so far
Nothing can take away what we’ve seen and what we’ve learned
We’re changing and that’s okay
We had our time and now we can
Hold on to who we were, nothing can hold a candle
I’ll take away from what we’ve learned, keep the dreams closer
And now we’ve grown separate lives
And breaking the ice is getting harder
But there’s no need to waste our words
On what’s gone and over
