Lyrics
Hold on to what you know
You can feel the undertow
It’s not the time for you to turn around and start again
Now is the time you have to stand your ground
To remain the same
What do you need to believe?
What do you need to feel alive?
Hold on to what they say
Use it to motivate
It’s not the time for you to validate their point of view
It’s time to calculate the paths that lay ahead of you
Today
Hold on to yesterday
Before you fade away
They’ll try again before you get a chance to make them pay
But you were ready for their dissidence and disarray
Do what you need to believe
Do what you need to be free
The only way to win is not to play
The best revenge to have is to live your life your way
Hold on to what you know
You can feel the undertow dragging you down to hell
