Holding Back The Years

holding back the years
thinking of the fear i’ve had for so long
when somebody hears
listen to the fear that’s gone
holding back the years
chance for me to escape from all i’ve known
holding back the tears
cuz nothing here has grown
and i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
i’ve wasted all my tears
wasted all those years
and nothing had the chance to be good
nothing ever could
and i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
