[Verse 1]
Can I try for something, far from a lie
Can I speak without you taming my mind
Industry could take the best of me
This industry could swallow all of me

[Chorus]
Hold on little sailor, it will be alright
I know you'll be braver, best behavior tonight
We got so close to the fame and the life
Watching the stars tonight
Little sailor, let's sail tonight

[Verse 2]
Can I live inside a bubble we call home?
Willing to do anything, if I write a hit song
And I'll ride this tide, I'll put some make-up on
And I'll shock the crowd, cause it will sell my song

[Chorus]
Hold on little sailor, it will be alright
I know you'll be braver, best behavior tonight
We got so close to the fame and the life
Watching the stars tonight
Little sailor, let's sail tonight
[Verse 3]
Six different managers, all filled with good intent
They promised me the world, I ain't seen nothing yet
Work hard to stay alive, work hard to pay the rent
Still need my mom and dad, they must be heaven sent

[Chorus}
Hold on little sailor, it will be alright
I know you'll be braver, best behavior tonight
We got so close to the fame and the life
Watching the stars tonight
Little sailor, let's sail tonight
