lyrics

All my dreams began falling
I was falling with them
I was nothing but fony
Some untalented man

I was aiming to grow
The ground swept from my feet
I could no longer hold to
Hopes to reach dreamland

Like a bird flew the whole world
From my cold hands
Like a bird flew the whole world
I was left in no man’s land

But I’m holding on
Yes I’m holding strong
But I can’t hold alone
For much too long

Misery tastes like honey
My lips tasted like that
And then the world stopped turning
Not to start again

I was only a grown man
A child turned into this
But my feet were still tiny
Small were my footsteps

Like a bird flew the whole world
From my cold hands
Like a bird flew the whole world
I was left in no man’s land

But I’m holding on
Yes I’m holding strong
But I can’t hold alone
For much too long

Now I’m holding on
Yes I’m holding strong
But I can’t hold alone
For much too long

No, I can’t hold alone
For much too long
