But we hold on
Keep going until dawn
We could be down and gone
Measured out in coffee breaks
But we hold on
How many times must another line be drawn?
Find another road to take
But we hold on
How many times
Do we chafe against the repetition
Do we weather out the stormy evenings
How many times must another line be drawn?
Drive away into the setting sun
Keep going until dawn
How many times must another line be drawn?
How many times must another line be drawn?
Keep holding on so long
Keep going until dawn
We could be down and gone
Long to give up the same old way
We could be down and gone
Keep going until dawn
Tempted to cut and run
But we hold on
We could be down and gone
How many times
How may times
We could be down and gone
Long to slam the front door
Do we swallow our ambition
There’s got to be some other way
We could be down and gone
But we hold on
Straining against the fate
Keep going until dawn
How many times
Way to get me through the day
But we hold on
How many times must another line be drawn?
‘Cause there’s a chance that we might not be so wrong
Do we wonder if it’s even worth it?
Threaten to call it quits
