Once again, I'm fallin' to my knees
(I try to escape 'cause I just can't take it)
Now this feelin' is spreading like a disease
(I fake another day and the wheel keeps turning)
This place is so pathetic
Doesn't anybody get it?
Is there anybody home?
Is there anybody home?
There's nothing left
We're just a shadow of what we used to be
In the night, there's a fire in my eyes
And this paradise has become a place we've come to cry
When I open your letter, the words make it better
It takes it all away
Oh, whoa
It keeps me holdin' on
Oh-oh, it keeps me holdin' on
Here we are, pretending we're okay
(You can say what you want, but you still can't fool me)
The life we're livin', it's all a masquerade
(I try to smile, but I can't remember how)
So, how'd we get so jaded?
Is it so complicated to not give up on me?
In the night, there's a fire in my eyes
And this paradise has become a place we've come to cry
When I open your letter, the words make it better
It takes it all away
Oh, whoa
It keeps me holdin' on
(Whenever I need you, wherever I run to)
(I know where to find you)
It keeps me holdin' on
(Whenever I need you, wherever I run to)
(I know where to find you)
Oh
You keep me holdin' on, on
You keep me holdin' on, whoa
In the night, there's a fire in my eyes
And this paradise has become a place we've come to cry
When I open your letter, the words make it better
It takes it all away
Oh, whoa
It keeps me holdin' on
(Whenever I need you, wherever I run to)
(I know where to find you)
It keeps me holdin' on
(Whenever I need you, wherever I run to)
(I know where to find you)
It keeps me holdin' on
