[Verse 1]
We learned how on our own
Never needing help from you
Reaching out with eyes closed
We felt the light, it taught us to grow

[Chorus 1]
Hold, hold, hold on
Hold, hold, hold on

[Verse 2]
Creatures of habit, carrion flowers
Growing from repeated crimes
The afterglow in full bloom
Slow and relentless, we're after you

[Chorus 2]
Hold on to the pain
Of love taken from you
A plague
Hold on to the pain (hold on, hold on)
Of love taken from you (hold on, hold on)
A plague (hold on)
