It's a tired drumbeat in my chest I left all the ones I loved the best Loneliness was stripping off her dress And that's alright I was getting used to cutting ties And rubbing out your crayon drawing eyes Said you didn't wanna stay the night And that's alright When it gets colder, it's alright We're lonely soldiers in the deep, dark night I wanted to know ya, I wanted to fight Don't have to be over, oh-oh-oh Just hold the light Hold the light, oh-oh-oh Just hold the light Hold the light, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh A comedy is crying in my head Sinking while I'm filling up with dread Try sometimes to save you from my bed 'Cause I'm a lie, oh-oh, woah I'm terrified you've seen my fake machine 'Cause skin is only fleeting velveteen Bouncing on the stormiest of seas Till morning light When it gets colder, it's alright We're lonely soldiers in the deep, dark night I wanted to know ya, I wanted to fight Don't have to be over, oh-oh-oh Just hold the light Hold the light, oh-oh-oh Just hold the light Hold the light (hold the light) Hold the light Hold the light Hold the light Hold the light When it gets colder, it's alright We're lonely soldiers in the deep, dark night I wanted to know ya, I wanted to fight Don't have to be over, oh-oh-oh Just hold the light Hold the light, oh-oh-oh Just hold the light Hold the light Ooh (hold the light) Ooh (hold the light) Ooh (hold the light) Ooh (hold the light) Ooh (hold the light) Ooh (hold the light) Hold the light Hold the light
