Pull the Pin

My god, I am so hungry, waiting for my food
Staring out the window, straight directly at the moon
What will quench my thirst and bring me to the light?
Could I really understand all the reasons why?
My god, son, you're so funny for thinking you could be
The one who finally figures out the point of all this living
We're an ocean of mystery and regret
Nothing can save you from the demons in your bed

She's right at night
I lay awake and wonder why
Everything seems to pass me by

So I'm just a mortal living on this earth
Hoping for a chance to pass along my worth
To a younger generation quickly getting old
Clinging on to hopes I have, getting on through the cold

This semblance of a life is really not that grim
To live out of context is the only way to fit in
And to know what you want and who you've got
You'll have to stare them in the face and show them what you're not
If your heart just wants to explode
Carefully pull the pin out

Do you know what you want?
Do I know what I want?
Well, I'd like to
And I'd like it to be you
And if it could be
Then it should be
Everyday I hold on, hold on
Everyday I hold on, hold on to you

Everyday I hold on
Everyday I hold on
Everyday I hold on
Everyday I hold on to you
