Hold Steady - Fox Stevenson

Oh, hold it steady

Get it ready

Let it go

Something simple I don’t know

Stop, I can’t think

I’ve got everything flashing and I’m on the brink of collapse

Oh, I’m way past that

And I can’t even tell

We’ve got it all right here

Or maybe we’ll just disappear

That’s my only fear

Welcome to hell

Oh, hold it steady

Get it ready

Let it go

Something simple I don’t know

She smiles, sips on a cocktail

Talks about her long term plans

She don’t need schooling anyway

She’s gonna marry a rich old man

Did we stoop this low?

Man, I don’t know

She says she’s broke

But we’re all broken too

Oh, hold it steady

Get it ready

Let it go

Something simple we don’t know

And I guess it shows

We’d crack the skies in half if they said so

Something simple I don’t know

We need to take it back to the front lines again

Too many runners, too many loose ends

Too many of them think they’re men, they pretend

No heads, no hearts, no end for them

It’s been so long I forgot what I want

Too much thinking, too little gets done

And what if I’m wrong, and have been all along

This hill’s too steep, I’m too far gone

So I

Step back to the top again

I live alone 'cause I can’t make friends

I wish somebody would make some sense

I gotta stop wishing that the rules would bend

Oh, hold it steady

Get it ready

Let it go

Something simple we don’t know

And I guess it shows

We’d crack the skies in half if they said so

Something simple I don’t know
