Holding On To What Hurts

It’s late and the night told you to think better of it some time ago
But you just keep fighting…fighting…
You keep forcing it, you keep holding on
It’s time to let go, time to make the tough call
Time to stop faking it all
Cause if you want it you can get it but you need the drive
And it seems so hard, when it brings you down, and it brings you down
When all I wanted to find
Was the spirit I’d lost
And it’s feeling like the right time
To try and dig it all out
Break the everyday curse
Of holding on to what hurts
It sorta seems like you try to forget things
Sometimes it seems you forget to care
You know you’re not the only one with a little bit of soul ache
Sometimes your aching don’t compare
To everyone, who’ve got everything on their minds?
And everyone who seeks but cannot find
Well there’s a little ray of light of hope (I hope)
And it comes in the shape of a whispered dream
And in the midst of the colour scheme
You can see it coming your way.
When all I wanted to find
Was the spirit I’d lost
And it’s feeling like the right time
To try and dig it all out
Break the everyday curse
Of holding on to what hurts

If it takes all night, I will write this song that asks you why it is
Always you that stays within striking distance of dreams
You’re so vivid, that I would give it, everything if it were only real
And I feel, like selling up my things I’ll buy a ticket and a ring
So don’t ask me if I’m missing you
Don’t ask me if I’m lonely too
Cause if you go give me half a reason to
I’ll pack my bags for Sicily and you
So you’ve seen this world
Followed the sun and bought the rays back here for everyone
And I’ve moved, but not so far,
But my head’s been everywhere you are
Cause you’re always in it, and I’m beginning
To think there is some place that I would rather be
(so I could have you next to me)
And there’s nothing I could bring but I’ll have a ticket and a ring
When Santorini looks that way
I hope that all the colours match your face
So that when you make it back this way
You could talk about a sunrise
That I could see in your eyes once again
