Don't hold yourself down
When the room gets small
Scuffed-up boots on the floor
Back against the wall
You got a fire in your chest
You can taste that fight
One hand on the door
One foot in the light
Believe
Even if it shakes
Hold on
Till the whole world breaks
Believe
Hold on and let go
Believe
Don't dream with eyes shut
(Don't dream asleep )
Dream with eyes open, dream awake
Hold on and let go
Don't dream your dreams away
Cigarette burns on the ashtray
Cold rain on the pane
Old mirror, cracked in the corner
Still calling your name
You said, "maybe" too many times
Let that die tonight
Step out of the shadow
And into the fight
Believe
Even if it shakes
Hold on tight
Till the whole world breaks
let go with all your might
Believe
Don't dream with eyes shut
(Don't dream your dreams away)
If your knees hit the floor
Get back up again,dust yourself off
If the world shuts the door
Kick it open, kick it off it's fuckin frame
Don't hold yourself down
Hands on the rail
Pocket full of thunder
Ready to fail
The mirror knows your name
Still, you walk in proud
One more step forward,cut through the noise
Cut through the crowd, never walk in one's shadows, always stand ten toes tall and cast your own, it's not the fall that hits hard it's the trip that grips on the way to the fall
Believe
Hold on and let go
Feel that crack in the door
Let the whole wind blow , kick the door of it's fuckin frame,one can't catch a dream chasing nightmares, don't dream with eyes shut,dream awake,
There's only one that can hold one down in life an that is one's self,"Don't hold yourself down"
Don't hold yourself down
Believe, believe
Hold on and let go
Don't dream your dreams away
Don't dream with eyes shut
Breathe it in
Then let it go
boots on the floor
heart in the flame
No more backing up
No more hiding shame
got dirt on your sleeves
And a storm in your chest
Take the long way home
You know what comes next
Hold on and let go
Feel that crack in the door
Let the whole wind blow ,kick the door off it's fuckin frame
Don't hold yourself down dream with eyes open
Don't hold yourself down dream awake
Believe, believe
Hold on and let go
Don't dream with eyes shut
Don't dream your dreams away
Breathe it in
Then let it go
If the night comes hard
You can bite back loud
Lift your face to the burn
Stand your ground
One life, one spark
One shot to break through
Say it again now
This is yours to do,take care of business and pleasure is sure to follow you
Don't hold yourself down, dream with eyes open
Don't hold yourself down,dream awake
Believe, believe
Hold on and let go
dream awake
Don't dream with eyes shut
Breathe it in
Then let it go
Don't hold yourself down
Don't hold yourself down
Believe, believe
Don't dream asleep,dream awake,one can't catch a dream chasing nightmares,take the long way home you know what comes next, don't dream with eyes shut, dream awake
