Hold me now, I am breaking Eyes are raw and bones are aching Un-clench my fists for the last time today And wish your face would fade away All of the hours All of the sleepless nights All of the worry trapped under blinding lights All of the faces blank as the room is bright We take it all just to prove wrong from right Just to prove wrong from right Just like birds on the wire Strung out but never tired When the flames grow higher We'll soar up from the fire And start again All of the hours All of the sleepless nights All of the worry trapped under blinding lights All of the faces blank as the room is bright We'll take it all just to prove wrong from right I will hold on hope Keep your mind from the road And we'll save our sorrow 'till we know 'Till we know They're gonna send us home Just like birds on the wire Strung out but never tired When the flames grow higher We'll soar up from the fire And start again (I will hold on hope) (Keep your mind from the road) (I will save our sorrow 'till we know) ('Till we know) (They're gonna send us home) I will hold on hope Keep your mind from the road I will save our sorrow 'till we know 'Till we know They're gonna send us home Just like birds on the wire All of the hours All of the sleepless nights All of the worry trapped under blinding lights All of the faces blank as the room is bright We take it all just to prove wrong from right Just to prove wrong from right Holding me now, I am breaking Eyes are raw and bones are aching When the night feels like it's closing in You'll hold the light up and we'll start again
