talk talk
what's our mission
do we know
would never listen
for too long
they held me under
but out here
it's almost over
in detroit
on our memphis train
like you said

it's down in the heat and the summer rain
or the automatic galls of your memories
down in the sleep at the airplane races

try to hold on
for this heart
a little bit longer
try to hold on
for this love
alone
try to hold on
for this heart
a little bit colder
try to hold on
for this love

paperback scroll your hidden poem
written around the dried out flowers
here we are still trading places
try to hold on

talk talk
can you envision
a free world
of clear devision
for too long
they held us under
but i know
we're getting over
in detroit
with the nashville tears
like you said

it's down in the heat with the broken numbers
down in the gaze of solemnity
down in the way you held together

you try to hold on
to this heart
a little bit closer
try to hold on
for this love
alone
try to hold on
for this heart
a little bit older
try to hold on
for this love
alone

and we are still alive
try to hold on
and we are still alive
try to hold on
and no one should deny
we try to hold on
to the pulse of a feedback car
and into the flower, the cryptic movement
slipback kills the ancient remnants
that try to hold on

try to hold on
to this heart
alive
try to hold on
to this love
alone
try to hold on
and we are still alone
try to hold on
and we are still alive
try to hold on
talk talk
you never listen
skin need
try to hold on
stop stop
what's our mission
skin need
try to hold on
