Hold It Together - Chris Pureka

Looking in the wrong direction

So I’m getting myself lost

Yes, desperation has its cost

And I thought I knew better, oh

The things I thought

The things I wanted to be

The things I’m not, the things I’m not

And I’ve come to terms with the lines on my brow

And how I put them there myself

And I’ve come to terms with the fact that we

Don’t get what we want, and that’s why we want it from the start

That’s why we want it, that’s why

What a beautiful mess you’ve made

Are you proud of yourself?

Did you think that you could slip away and stay out of it?

So as long as you can stay, nobody’s happy now

And there’s nowhere else to go but down

It’s too late to be normal

It’s too late for compromise

Throw another log on the fire and cover your eyes

I said cover your eyes

No it’s not a crisis

No it’s not life or death

It’s just another day inside of your head

Inside your head, inside mine

What a beautiful mess you’ve made…

The burden, the blame, the crisis

Don’t have the strength to stick around

Hold it together now

Driving down south to recenter myself

Don’t have the strength to stick around

Hold it together now…

Hold yourself together…

Hold yourself now
