As Long As It Holds You
Spinning in and out
You're caught in ---?---
You feel something
But is it all there
Should you look around
For something else to try
Guess you could
But I see no reason why
As long as it holds you in the prison
You got to give it all every hour
As long as it holds you in the sweetness
You can forget the rest
Somewhere lost you don't understand
Cause the voices lay on the other hand
Pay me mind to what they got to say
Take it step by step
And day by day
As long as it holds you in the prison
You got to give it all every hour
As long as it holds you in the sweetness
You can forget the rest
Don't look for more
Chances are
It might be lying of your door
You can be sure
As long as it holds you
As long as it holds you
Holds you in the prison
You got to give it all every hour
As long as it holds you in the sweetness
You can forget the rest.
You're caught in ---?---
You feel something
But is it all there
Should you look around
For something else to try
Guess you could
But I see no reason why
As long as it holds you in the prison
You got to give it all every hour
As long as it holds you in the sweetness
You can forget the rest
Somewhere lost you don't understand
Cause the voices lay on the other hand
Pay me mind to what they got to say
Take it step by step
And day by day
As long as it holds you in the prison
You got to give it all every hour
As long as it holds you in the sweetness
You can forget the rest
Don't look for more
Chances are
It might be lying of your door
You can be sure
As long as it holds you
As long as it holds you
Holds you in the prison
You got to give it all every hour
As long as it holds you in the sweetness
You can forget the rest.
