Holding from Holding by The Mighty Frasers

Verse 1
Here I am marooned again in my own mind
Made it to the high ground in the nick of time
Rescue boat is leaving but it tows a line
I’m not holding

Verse 2
I thought in my garrison my dreams would be
All that I would need, they’d keep the world from me
As the waters rose I lost the certainty I was holding

Chorus
Flood waters rising, they’re closing in
Flood waters rising and they’re threatening
Flood waters rising, I’m wearing thin
Still I’m holding

Interlude

Verse 3
Alone at night the doubts come seeping through
Ragged holes in reason, jagged cracks in truth
Wash away my theories and most absolutes
Just love left holding

Chorus
Flood waters rising, they’re closing in
Flood waters rising and they’re threatening
Flood waters rising, I’m wearing thin
Still I’m holding

Solo

Verse 4
Fear is like the river when its mood is black
Swift guerilla undertow, midnight-attack
I can’t push the river, but I hold it back
And I keep holding

Chorus
Flood waters rising, they’re closing in
Flood waters rising and they’re threatening
Flood waters rising, I’m wearing thin
Still I’m holding

Chorus
Flood waters rising, they’re closing in
Flood waters rising and they’re threatening
Flood waters rising, I’m wearing thin
Still I’m holding
Holding on
Holding on
Holding, holding on
