Boys Night Out - Hold On Tightly, Let Go Lightly lyrics

rate me

When you're left with only a bullet

I'll bring the trigger and a promise to pull it

I'll be the end of everyone who's ever entered your life

And taken pieces out of it

I'll give you enough time to regain your composure

To reconstruct a heart that's torn apart from over-exposure

I know forever isn't long enough to forget the faces and places

That played out your tragedy

Memory defeats us all

I've touched this stagnant water and muddy walls

Of the trench where you've been sleeping

And there's nothing there worth keeping

There's nothing there worth keeping

Or believing

So on the eve of the attack

We'll finger-trace the targets

On their backs and open fire

(Just hold on until they're gone)

So with this kiss I promise to

Never forget what you did for me

You did for me

(I felt the sun on my face for the first time

And tasted blood on my tongue for the last)

When you're left with only a bullet,

I'll bring the trigger and a promise to pull it

I'll be the end of everyone who's ever entered your life

And taken pieces out of it

I'll give you enough time to regain your composure

To reconstruct a heart that's torn apart from over-exposure

I know forever isn't long enough to forget the faces and places

That played out your tragedy
