Hold On
Great White · Other Songs - Great White
See their faces, they can't hide.
Strangers from a daydream
Running rabid, pass me by.
I'm just one man
Caught in a world's confusion
Look for a way out
Can't find no "easy solution"...
But I'll try... to make it all that I need
Don't say die
Gotta hold on
Gotta hold on one more
Gotta hold on
Gotta hold on one more
One more day
Been around. I've seen it all
Heard all the lies
Sure I've had my blue days
But got no time to cry
The makers and takers that never give back
They got me running, they're dogs on my tracks
