Ben Gold & Sivan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hold on for dear life
No one comes tonight
You barely feel alive
You fall on to your knees
You cry but no one sees
Please listen to me
Where you are I have been
When all that you want
Is to make it through the day
When all that you want
Seems so far away
I swear it gets better
You′ll have all that you want
But you've got stay
When all that you want
Is to make it through the day
When all that you want
Seems so far away
I swear it gets better
You′ll have all that you want
But you've got stay
When all that you want
Is to make it through the day
When all that you want
Seems so far away
I swear it gets better
You'll have all that you want
But you′ve got stay

You cannot see the light
Undawn for day life
No one comes tonight
You better feel alive
You fall onto your knees
You cry but no one says...
Please listen to me
Where you are, I have been
We'll know that you want
Is to make it through the day
We'll know that you want
Seems also far away
I swear, it gets better
We'll have all that you want
But you've gotta stay...
We'll know that you want
Is to make it through the day
We'll know that you want
Seems also far away
I swear, gets better
We'll have all that you want
But you've gotta stay...
We'll know that you want
Is to make it through the day
We'll know that you want
Seems also far away
I swear, gets better
We'll have all that you want
But you've gotta stay...
