about

Recorded at REI studios in Islandia, New York

lyrics

Alone in a room of screaming statues
waiting for the sea to come and catch you
and when time decides to swallow you
nobody will care to remember you

But to those who feel so bold
they only do what they are told
mentally old, physically sold
only the foolish never fold
and to those who feel so tired
who lost all self desire
I'm not here to hold your hand
I'm not here to hold your hand

Turn down the sound for me
I'll do the same for you
count to three and look at me
I'll be standing there without you
to see the world in a different view
you'll be stuck in a life so untrue
I take your cue and follow you
I take your cue and I break through

And when history fades, fades away
in my arms, you will always stay
unbothered by those who don't agree
unable to accept or to see

But to those who feel so bold
they only do what they are told
mentally old, physically sold
only the foolish never fold
and to those who feel so tired
new york has lost its fire
well I'm here to hold your hand
well I'm here to hold your hand
