Sad eyes at the subway seats
Dreamless thoughts in empty hands
They rip themselves off every day
To live the life they despise

Small fights for a bigger space
Rushing steps are pushing me
And sometimes when I start to fall
I wonder if I look like them

So what's holding you?
What's holding you?
What's holding you?
It's not holding me

Without strength for the social rub
My will to live is fading fast
Do you break into pieces
When you go out for a walk at night?

Sad eyes stare down at me
Glimpses from a common thought
When I project myself on them
I wonder if they look like me

So what's holding you?
What's holding you?
