So it goes, it didn’t happen this time
You gave the final push you laid it all on the line
And now you’re praying everyday just to keep it alive
Sometimes the deepest hopes need any reason to die
But if you hang on, if you hang on
Let your heartbeat proclaim what’s in your blood
If you hang on, if you hang on
There is rest for the weary when the night does come
If you hang on, past your swan song
And sing about your troubles like a desperate psalm
If you hang on, you’ll find it won’t be long
You’re worn thin, you’re trying to fix it in your sleep
You worked it out all night and now it’s lost in a heap
And now you’re pacing through the walls with your dreams on your sleeve
Sometimes the fire inside can burn the heart to believe
But if you hang on, if you hang on
Let your heartbeat proclaim what’s in your blood
If you hang on, if you hang on
There is rest for the weary when the night does come
If you hang on, past your swan song
And sing about your troubles like a desperate psalm
If you hang on, you’ll find it won’t be long
