[Intro]
[low feedback
Guitar swell]
Shaking hands
White-knuckled faith
You say you’re tired
Of “maybe later”
[Verse 1]
You wear your doubt
Like a rusted halo
Every promise you heard
Turned to scar tissue
You trace those lines
Like a map of near-misses
You say
“If I let go
Will anyone miss this?”
Teeth on a prayer
Tongue tastes of metal
You’ve been bracing for impact
At every red light
[Pre-Chorus]
You’re standing on the edge
Counting all the ways it ends
But you never count yourself
As something worth defending
[Chorus]
Hold on to me
I’ll never let you fall
Even if the sky caves in
Even if the wolves all call
Grip my arms
You can trust me through it all
When your faith is paper-thin
I’ll be the hands that break your fall
[Verse 2]
Your shadow talks
In a voice like thunder
Says
“You’re just weight
For the world to drag under”
But you’re not an anchor
You’re a sealed-up safe
Still packed with secrets
You were told to erase
Every breath’s a bridge
You keep wanting to burn
But every ash in your mouth
Is a lesson you learned
[Pre-Chorus]
You stare into the dark
Waiting for it to speak your name
But you never see the spark
Buried in the blackened frame
[Chorus]
Hold on to me
I’ll never let you fall
Even if the sky caves in
Even if the wolves all call
Grip my arms
You can trust me through it all
When your faith is paper-thin
I’ll be the hands that break your fall
[Bridge]
[sudden drop
Clean guitars]
You are not your worst day
You are not that locked door
You’re the bruise that bloomed
And still begged for more
If your ribs are cages
Then my voice is the key
If your hope’s a dead language
Let my throat start to speak (yeah)
[Breakdown]
[full band slams back in]
Scream it till it shatters
(breathe in / bleed out)
Scream it till it matters
(breathe in / bleed out)
You can trust me
When the floor gives way
You can trust me
When your bones just shake
[Chorus]
Hold on to me
I’ll never let you fall
Even if the sky caves in
Even if the wolves all call
Grip my arms
You can trust me through it all
When your faith is paper-thin
I’ll be the hands that break your fall
[Instrumental – Guitar Solo]
[searing
Melodic solo over halftime groove]
[Outro]
Hold on
(hold on, hold on)
You are the storm
I am the wall
Hold on to me
(yeah, scream if you have to)
I’ll never let you fall
I’ll never let you
Fall
