The Gaslight Anthem - Placeholder lyrics
[The Gaslight Anthem - Placeholder lyrics]
In the middle of the
Night when everyone's sleeping
Once the bands have died down
And our brothers and our sisters have gone
I feel the shaking in my sides
Conscious and familiar
I pace some unfamiliar street
Until I pass out or calm down enough
And I can't tell you how
Desperate some times have gotten
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
I nearly lost you
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
And in the middle of the day
When the heat keeps on rising
The fear of sickness or
Breakdown or infidelity makes it's rounds
And in the drag of the late
Afternoon settling in to evening
Well, that I just can't describe with
A dry eye or American words
And I can't tell you how many times
I just want to lie down
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i nearly lost you
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
I'm coming home
You and your high-top sneakers
And your sailor tattoos
And your old fifty-five that you
Drove through the roof
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart
Hold on, hold on, hold on!
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
You gotta just Hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
These records and these bands and
Electric guitars really matter
To these hands and these arms and this
Tired Irish heart made of stone
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on
You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on you gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Night when everyone's sleeping
Once the bands have died down
And our brothers and our sisters have gone
I feel the shaking in my sides
Conscious and familiar
I pace some unfamiliar street
Until I pass out or calm down enough
And I can't tell you how
Desperate some times have gotten
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
I nearly lost you
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
And in the middle of the day
When the heat keeps on rising
The fear of sickness or
Breakdown or infidelity makes it's rounds
And in the drag of the late
Afternoon settling in to evening
Well, that I just can't describe with
A dry eye or American words
And I can't tell you how many times
I just want to lie down
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i nearly lost you
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
I'm coming home
You and your high-top sneakers
And your sailor tattoos
And your old fifty-five that you
Drove through the roof
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
While you just kept coming apart
Hold on, hold on, hold on!
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
You gotta just Hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, i'm coming home
These records and these bands and
Electric guitars really matter
To these hands and these arms and this
Tired Irish heart made of stone
You gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on
You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on you gotta just hold on, hold
On, hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
