Keep me past the gate

I've worn the world without a word

And I don't care too much for what they say

Grip my smothering end

Another day will pass again

Keep My fire alive for I'm not afraid



Can I make them understand

Who in the world would have thought this

God I'll never know your plans

Doin what i got to

What I Got to hang on

Cause I'm doin what I got to

What I got to hang on

Hanging on by a thread this is what I got

So hang on to this



Keep me pacified

The light will never see my face

For this must be a better place

Keep them entertained

I've lost the feel, I've lost the pain

For this seems to be a better place



Can I make them understand

Who in the world would have thought this

God I'll never know your plans

Doin what i got to

What I Got to hang on

Cause I'm doin what I got to

What I got to hang on

Hanging on by a thread this is what I got

So hang on to this



Maybe you'll find what you seek

If you hold on to truth

Then your truth will set you free
