Hold Up (Alternate Version)
If I hold up
If I lean strong against the wind
When the breeze blows me down
Upon my back
And I fight upright again
If I hold up
If I smile wide when they offend
If I go against the grain enough
I know it will one day soon smoothen
If I hold up
And it's more than just a problem
And it's more than just a whim
I can see you never cared about me
Even though you say you did
I'm not impressed by those with power
I'm not impressed by those who grin
When I hold up
Then I hold up
If I hold up
Now if I hold up
I'm gonna let some light come in
I'm gonna bow my head
And simply ask
Will you help me forgive them?
If I hold up
When my fabric is wearing thin
When I'm hanging by a thread and get
Tangled up in confidence
If I hold up
I'm gonna scratch and claw for solace
I'm gonna let forgiveness in
I'm gonna try to let it hold me
I'm gonna try to let it win
Cause I don't want to carry grudges
But I feel I'm forced to live under them
If I hold up
Until I hold up
And I'm best when I'm a martyr
But there is no one following
Until I hold up
If I hold up
If I hold up
If I lean strong against the wind
When the breeze blows me down
Upon my back
And I fight upright again
If I hold up
If I smile wide when they offend
If I go against the grain enough
I know it will one day soon smoothen
If I hold up
And it's more than just a problem
And it's more than just a whim
I can see you never cared about me
Even though you say you did
I'm not impressed by those with power
I'm not impressed by those who grin
When I hold up
Then I hold up
If I hold up
Now if I hold up
I'm gonna let some light come in
I'm gonna bow my head
And simply ask
Will you help me forgive them?
If I hold up
When my fabric is wearing thin
When I'm hanging by a thread and get
Tangled up in confidence
If I hold up
I'm gonna scratch and claw for solace
I'm gonna let forgiveness in
I'm gonna try to let it hold me
I'm gonna try to let it win
Cause I don't want to carry grudges
But I feel I'm forced to live under them
If I hold up
Until I hold up
And I'm best when I'm a martyr
But there is no one following
Until I hold up
If I hold up
If I hold up
