Greg X. Volz - Hold on to the Fire lyrics

You look around - see your pleasant days disappearing Feel like a paper hat in the path of a howling storm Things can turn so cold and the wind seems to never lose its breath Till the light inside is all that's left to keep you warm When ya see all you've worked for blowin' away And ya look at your accusers and have nothin' to say Hold on to the fire - to the truth that lights your desire Let it burn, burn, burn deep in your soul Hold on to the fire - as the flames climb hotter and higher Let the work that has begun be done in you Well, you can get sidetracked tryin' to search down these little alleys And ya usually find that there ain't much there at all An' I know how it feels to be stuck down in the valleys But sometimes you're held down so you won't die when you fall Coz the light's burnin' brighter - brighter than the day When all of the shadows are out of the way What have you got that they can't take away? You can choose what you'll do in the face of dismay When ya just wanna run to your shelter and hide And it feels like someone's fightin' a world war inside
