Cling To Life

(album: Weight Of The False Self - 2020)

I'm helpless here, holding lifeless hands
Didn't see this coming
This was never planned
Once we had everything, now we see
How quickly life can change, how cruel it can be

(Truth is) I don't know what lies ahead
(Truth is) No one's ever faultless
(Truth is) Not always in sight
Truth is hard to stomach when you feed yourself lies

Cling to life
Our belief is what unites
Cling to life
Never let your lows steal your heights
Cling to life
Reach for the light
Our belief is what unites
Cling to life
I ask that you reach out, follow the light and don't let go

It's tragic, here you lay expressionless
What once was vibrant became emptiness
If I could just command your body not to wither
If I could just turn back the years and not be bitter

(Truth is) We have to brave the depths
(Truth is) It can all collapse
(Truth is) Not what pulls us apart
Truth is the beating of your fearless heart

There's truth in resisting
What pulls us apart
When I know I still feel the beating of your fearless heart

There's truth you can't divide
In this we can unite
Truth is hard to stomach when you feed yourself lies

(Truth is) I should've done what was needed
(Truth is) Others failed when you succeeded
(Truth is) What is broken can mend
Truth is all of this comes to an end

Cling to life
Our belief is what unites
Cling to life
Never let your lows steal your heights
Cling to life, reach for the light
Our belief is what unites
Cling to life
I ask that you reach out, follow the light and don't let go
