Red – Hold Me Now lyrics

Red – Hold Me Now lyrics

Fall asleep to dreams of home
Where the waves are crashing
The only place I've ever known
Now the future has me

I see the fire in the sky
See it all around me
I said the past is dead
The life I had is gone

Said I won't give up
Until I see the sun

Hold me now
'Til the fear is leaving
I am barely breathing

(Pause)

Waking up and letting go
To the sound of angels
Am I alive or just a ghost?
Haunted by my sorrows

Hope is slipping through my hands
Gravity is taking hold
I said I'm not afraid
That I'm brave enough

I will not give up
Until I see the sun

Hold me now
'Til the fear is leaving
I am barely breathing

Crying out
These tired wings are falling
I need you to catch me

As I burn
As I break
I can't take it anymore

I return to the place where
The water covers over everything
Rescue me somehow

Hold me now
'Til the fear is leaving
I am barely breathing

Crying out
These tired wings are falling
I need you to catch me

Hold me now
'Til the fear is leaving
I am barely breathing

This, personally, is my favorite song. It says everything I never can say. I have an anxiety disorder, so the "till the fear is leaving, I am barely breathing" is true for me, both literally and figuratively. It's a very abstract song, it says things without saying them outright. I feel (okay know, I am one) that Hold Me Now says a lot for schizophrenics. A lot of the time, things go through my mind without being able to be put into words. Sometimes I don't even know what exactly my thoughts are. This song is a good. Representation, I guess. That sometimes, life can't be put into black and white. Sometimes, you need a concept, a picture. And Hold Me Now holds a very vivid picture.
