Let's Hold Ourselves

Lizard kings and broken wings, living with the past

Fights and fiends, deleted scenes, each stranger than the last

My kingdom for an exit, one basement for a stiff

I took you for my saving grace, you took me to a cliff

Chinese bars and cable cars rolling in the grass

Setting sail on vapor trails, then running out of gas

The execution left a little bit to be desired

All I really ever wanted was a chance to kick the tires

Let's hold ourselves a little tighter

Let's hold ourselves 'til time stands still

If we can't learn to hold on to ourselves

Let's hope somebody else will

"Cross the moat," that's all she wrote, now I'm dungeon bound

Fold up dreams and "Fellow's Theme" deep in the Puget Sound

It all just blurs together, it all just falls apart

I love you all forever, but where does forever start?

Let's hold ourselves a little tighter

Let's hold ourselves 'til time stands still

If we can't learn to hold on to ourselves

Oh, let's hope somebody else will

Let's hold ourselves a little tighter

Oh, let's hold ourselves 'til time stands still

Let's hold on, let's hold on to ourselves

Oh, let's hold ourselves a little tighter now, yeah

Let's hold on a little tighter now, a little tighter now
