Songtexte Hold My Own - Greye

So you tell me the grass is green where you water it
But the well has runneth dry, the field is barren
The rainy season has already passed us by

You say it's better late than never
But count the minutes as they go by
Like every one could be my last
Like I'm wasting all my time

Like I'm wasting all my time

Yeah you tell me to bite the bullet
So here I am doing spit takes with live rounds
Shots are fired and you're dying to get the barrel out of my mouth

You say to get my act together
But I intend to play this out
And when the curtain falls
You'll be begging for one more song as I take my bows

Well I guess I should have known
All this time I'm in control
You can throw your sticks and stones
Tell me to hold on, hold on, so I will hold
I will hold my own

You tell me that I should have known better
That we learn from our mistakes
Well how many tries did it take you
To see the error of your ways

You say whatever you say at a time like this
But I'm not listening
All I hear is the sound of a crowd
That's been waiting to hear me sing

Well I guess I should have known
All this time I'm in control
You can throw your sticks and stones
Tell me to hold on, hold on, so I will hold
I will hold my own

Hold my own
Hold my own
Hold my own

Well I guess I should have known
All this time I'm in control
You can throw your sticks and stones
Tell me to hold on, hold on, so I will hold
I will hold my own
