Holding Onto Something - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Home, your head never touched the pillow when you fell asleep

And I, I wanted the truth, but maybe hold back on the honesty

Didn't wanna lose it all, you still came callin'

For the records that you had on my shelf

Could've been the alcohol, a cold rainfall

Makes every day look like the day before

And, oh, how long

'Cause it's now or never, not forever

And I would run

But it's lonely weather all December

And holding on to something

Holding on to something with you

Holding on to something's

The only thing I know how to do

Yeah, I know how to do

And don't, don't make it seem like they were promises you couldn't keep

I remember the night in my car when you said this is where you wanna be

Didn't wanna lose it all in the backyard callin'

Sayin', "Come and meet my family"

Oh, I'm tryin' to sleep

But all my fears become reality

And, oh, how long

'Cause it's now or never, not forever

And I would run

But it's lonely weather all December

And holding on to something

Holding on to something with you

Holding on to something's

The only thing I know how to do

Yeah, I know how to do

And every flower you planted is dead on the frozen ground

And all those bluebirds were singin', but now they're just headin' south

And I'm holding on to something

Holding on to something with you

Yeah, I'm holding on to something

Holding on to something true
