Holding on to Nothing - We Set Signals

It’s like I’m holding on to nothing

Like I don’t even have myself

It’s like the thought is crashing through

My lungs and I can’t scream for help

And as I’m holding on to nothing

It’s like there’s no way out from here

I never thought I’d be the one to try and

Outrun my own fears

You know it never felt easy pretending when I knew I had lost my way

All I knew was the darkness

All I felt was the emptiness as it tried to consume me

So I kept wearing crown that just kept weighing me down

Heavy headed I fell to my knees

And every time i found a light I could keep

I just kept pushing and pushing until I drowned it in what was me

It’s like I’m holding on to nothing

Like I don’t even have myself

It’s like the thought is crashing through my lungs and I can’t scream for help

And as I’m holding on to nothing

It’s like there’s no way out from here

I never thought I’d be the one to try and outrun my own fears

So I gave in to the pressure

And started to forget who I use to be

Felt like the weight of the world had pushed me deep underground

And the earth had me surrounded

I’d rather burn bright for others

I lost the spark keeping me alive

I pushed myself until the light had burnt out

And all the hope had been lost

And I had given up on myself

It’s like I’m holding on to nothing

Like I don’t even have myself

It’s like the thought is crashing through my lungs and I can’t scream for help

And as I’m holding on to nothing

It’s like there’s no way out from here

I never thought I’d be the one to try and outrun my own fears

Even though I was holding you up

I confess that it was you that was pulling me under

It was you that was bringing me to my knees

It’s like I’m holding on to nothing

Like I don’t even have myself

It’s like the thought is crashing through my lungs and I can’t scream for help

And as I’m holding on to nothing

It’s like there’s no way out from here

I never thought I’d be the one to try and outrun my own fears

And as I’m holding on to nothing

It’s like there’s no way out from here

I never thought I’d be the one to try and outrun my own fears
