Something to Hold on To - Emily Warren, Filous

You put your lips to nicotine and say it’s just the one

But nicotine don’t care about your lungs

You squeeze my hand, you say it’s fine

It’s only when you’re drunk

I wish I’d let you just do what you want

But I’m gonna need something to hold on to

Something to hold on to

Yeah, I’m gonna need something to hold on to

Something to hold on to

Now I feel bad, I apologize

I must leave you alone

You hate to feel like you’re being controlled, oh

Sorry if I squeeze too tight, I really hope you know

The reason I’m so scared to let you go, ooh, is

I’m gonna need something to hold on to

Something to hold on to

Yeah, I’m gonna need something to hold on to

Something to hold on to

If you knew the shooting pain that hits me in my chest

You’d think before you did that to yourself

And like I do, you picture us, both knowing it’s the end

And wishing that you’d heard me when I said that…

That I’m gonna need something to hold on to

Something to hold on to

That, I’m gonna need

Something to hold on to
