HOLD YOUR GROUND
C.I.R.C.L.E. O.F. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She wrote a songย 
A lonely girl on a bus
Headed where only god knowsย 
Headed where she didn't know
Head tilted back
Headphones really loud
Playing her favorite songs
Crying to her favorite songs
She don't need a friend
Or a lover for what is worth
She needs to stay alone
She needs to stay alone
And she's so sick
Of Everyone spitting liesย 
Telling her to be strongย 
Telling her to be strong
You like that boy
The boy with the silent mouth
The danger deep in his eyes
The danger deep in his eyes
And I'm your regret
It's hard to let people go
They're coming late at nightย 
Coming back late at nightย 
So she wrote a text
Instead of another song
"Hold me into your arms
Crush me into your arms"
There's a part of me that just got shattered to the groundย 
I'm trying hard to fall asleep but I just keep rolling around
I sat up late at night with the bats flying to the west
Living seems a compromise with this arrow in my chest
The moon shines so bright over skateparks and beyond
On packs of dogs before the fight, on girls eating candy corn
The fire's getting weak and I pray to get some rest
It's so hard to fall asleep with the devil under your bed whipering
Day dah dah
Day dah dah dah
Day dah
Day dah
Day dah dah
Day dah dah dah




Day dah
