Holding on

**Verse 1:**

I’ve got a heart full of words I can’t say,

Locked inside, they’re hidden away.

I’m drowning in silence, screaming in pain,

Every time I open up, it ends the same.

**Pre-Chorus:**

They say they’ll stay, but then they leave,

Leaving me alone, lost and deceived.

What’s the point of sharing my soul,

When every story ends with me alone?

**Chorus:**

I’m holding on to all these feelings,

Tangled up, it’s so revealing.

I’m hurting deep, but who would know?

When every time I try to show, they go.

**Verse 2:**

I’ve tried to be strong, tried to be brave,

But these emotions, they’re digging my grave.

I wear a smile, hide the tears,

But the weight of loneliness is all I fear.

**Pre-Chorus:**

Promises made, always broken,

Leaving scars, words unspoken.

Why should I trust, why should I try,

When every goodbye feels like a lie?

**Chorus:**

I’m holding on to all these feelings,

Tangled up, it’s so revealing.

I’m hurting deep, but who would know?

When every time I try to show, they go.

**Bridge:**

Maybe one day, someone will see,

The real me, the pain that’s free.

But until then, I’ll keep it inside,

This storm of emotions I can’t hide.

**Chorus:**

I’m holding on to all these feelings,

Tangled up, it’s so revealing.

I’m hurting deep, but who would know?

When every time I try to show, they go.

**Outro:**

I’ll keep these feelings close, they’re mine to bear,

In this lonely world, does anyone care?

I’m holding on, trying to survive,

In a world where feelings are left behind.
