[Verse 1]
I was drawn ridin' atop a black horse
Whatever prize there was, I could only observe

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Where the trouble starts
Where does it end?
How can I be cured, how, before it ends?

[Chorus 1]
I know life would be different if I held on (held on)
I know I could be something if I held on

[Verse 2]
Gave her life away, put it in my pocket when it shoulda been framed
Oh, lost its shine, gotta get this outta my head

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Out of my bed
How could it end?
End like this, how could it end?

[Chorus 2]
I know life would be different had I held on (held on)
I know I could be something had I held on (held on)
I know I could be something if I held on (held on)
I know life would be different if I held on, held on (held on)
[Outro]
Held on, held on, if I held on, held on
If I held on, held on, if I held on (held on)
