Holding On - Afterlife

It started with a simple look in her eyes

Caught me by surprise, I’m along for the ride, yeah

I didn’t know what I was gettin' into

We were living in the moment, didn’t matter to you (Matter to you)

And as the time went on

I should have seen all of the signs that something was wrong

But it was too good to be true so I just sat there and thought

What would I do without you?

What would I do without you?

Dragged me through hell for so long

I thought I needed you

But I found out the hard way

(I found out the hard way)

You come and go like seasons but you never seem to change

Yeah, I think the hurt is fading but I can’t forget your name

It cuts me up like daggers every time I think I’m wrong

'Cause the hardest part of letting go is trying to hold on

Can’t help but feel like I’m used and abused

Everything to gain and nothing to lose

And in the back of my head, never forget what you said

All I ever did was fill the void in your bed

And now the truth comes out

Everything that everybody warned me about

You set fire to my soul, burned me up

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

Dragged me through hell for so long

I thought you needed me

You’ll find out the hard way

Nothing’s ever as it seems

You come and go like seasons but you never seem to change

Yeah, I think the hurt is fading but I can’t forget your name

It cuts me up like daggers every time I think I’m wrong

'Cause the hardest part of letting go is trying to hold on

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

You left me to burn in the fire of us

You come and go like seasons but you never seem to change

Yeah, I think the hurt is fading but I can’t forget your name

It cuts me up like daggers every time I think I’m wrong

'Cause the hardest part of letting go is trying to hold on

I’m trying to hold on

I’m trying to hold on

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

You left me to burn in the fire of us
