A Little Longer

You don't need to keeep your head down so
Close to your heart
You don't have to be afraid that I will
Break it apart
You shouldn't have to carry such a heavy load
All on your own
But I can only stretch my hands so far until you
Let me get close
And I know I've caused a lot of pain
Trying to fix what I can't fix
Trying to heal what I can't heal
Trying to change what I can't change

I know it feels like a turgle war
Holding a rock you were never meant to hold
And even though it seems to never stop pulling on you
Don't let go
Just hold out a little longer
I know you can
I know you got it in you
I bet you're gonna look back one day
And say
That you're glad that you stayed a little longer
I know you can
I know you got it in you
I bet you're gonna look back one day
And say
That you're glad you stayed here a little longer
Hold out, hold out
A little longer

Don't get me wrong
I don't know what tomorrow brings
To be honest I don't know much of anything
The only promise we can make
Is to turn the same page today
Right here in this moment

I know it feels like a turgle war
Holding a rock you were never meant to hold
And even though it seems to never stop pulling on you
Don't let go
Just hold out a little longer
I know you can
I know you got it in you
I bet you're gonna look back one day
And say
That you're glad that you stayed a little longer
I know you can
I know you got it in you
I bet you're gonna look back one day
And say
That you're glad you stayed here a little longer
Hold out, hold out
A little longer
Hold out, hold out
A little longer
Hold out, hold out
A little longer

It won't always be this way, no
It won't always be this way
Nothing ever stays the same, no
Nothing ever stays the same
I was wrong
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry
It won't always be the same, no
I won't always be the same
Nothing ever stays the same, no
Nothing ever stays the same
I was wrong
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry

Just hold out a little longer
I know you can
I know you got it in you
I bet you're gonna look back one day
And say
That you're glad that you stayed a little longer
I know you can
I know you got it in you
I bet you're gonna look back one day
And say
That you're glad you stayed here a little longer
Hold out, hold out
A little longer
Hold out, hold out
A little longer
(I was wrong)
Hold out, hold out
A little longer
(I was wrong)
