Hold On 03:51
So you feel alone, and darkness covers you Weakness in your bones and nothing you can do Your world is on fire, ashes are all you see Just lift your eyes higher, and you can run to me Though they run away, I will always stay I’ll hold on longer than you think I’ll be strong so you don’t always have to be I will keep you in my sights, as long as you look in my eyes I won’t let go Everyone has left, cold isolation Painful pounds in your chest, feeling deflation Your world’s still on fire, ashes obstruct your view Just lift your head higher, and I will come to you Though they run away, I will always stay You have tried every way I can’t get it through your head I will forever stay That’s what I have always said

Grimm 03:33
I’ve heard many stories far too often told Younger they weren’t boring, not now as I’m old Tales of happy endings, that’s just what they are Constantly pretending all you need is a shooting star I’m sorry I can’t be your Prince Charming It’s been so long that I have been starving To be like that I’m sorry my strength fails to deliver I tried but now I’m out of your picture My story’s Grimm, but now yours is better Higher expectations than I could bear to be Endless agitation, ‘cause I’m not what you need All these stories made it difficult for me A knight in shining armor is all that you want to see You’ll still find your happy ending But perfection? That’s pretending You’ll still find your happy ending But perfection? Stop pretending!

I’m tired of always feeling Like I’m not good enough I’m hoping for what’s seeming To be an end to all this stuff Because I’m tired, oh, so tired I’m sick of feeling empty As if you’re all I need This feeling is so deadly It brings me to my knees But if my heart should fall Please keep me awake I’m feeling so afraid And if you hear my call Please pick me up again I need this dream to end My mind is getting weaker It’s hard to stay awake I’m such a heavy sleeper And it gives me so much pain My dreams are haunting me But you are all I need To stay awake amidst these ashes

If all I had was just a minute I would admit it to you These walls of glass that you constructed, My heart has lost it to them The night was cold, and light was fleeting Just like the feeling inside The laughter fades, and quickly sadness And all my madness set it I can’t tell you all I felt that night But it was not right I’m awake full of dread, soaking pillow cases I can’t explain this, I’m so afraid ‘Cause you’re in my head, all the moments resurface And I can’t explain it It seems like miles were place between us What I believed was insane But I still hope, that through the weather We’ll both be better in the end All I see is the dark, still my vision is blurry And I can’t help but worry about the past I’ve made my mistakes, but you’re still what I’m missing No I can’t explain it
