Can We Hang On ? - Cold War Kids

I’ve come here nine times asking you, do not make it ten

I’m peelin' off all the armor that protected my skin

Apologize, I’m layin' down my ego to rest

Could you be mine forever, just in case it exists?

I think about the old days

What we’ve been through to survive

Do we get better with time?

Tell me I’m wrong

Looking back to the start, who we were when we met

This box of pictures tells a story, when we fight, we forget

And I can barely recognize us, back then we were obsessed

Can we cut out this madness and get back to the best?

Think about the old days

What we’ve been through to survive

Do we get better with time?

Tell me I’m wrong

I’m lookin' to you always

We follow the same guiding light

Passin' like ships in the night

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

This could’ve gone either way if one of us had walked

If I’d gone off and you caved in, and we broke it off

I’d be lost, I’d be chasin' some broke down dream, I’d be bored to death

But we cannot stay forever young and out of our heads

Out of our heads

I’ll think about tomorrow

If I can get through tonight

I know that we’ll be alright

Can we be strong?

I’m lookin' to you always

Even though we’re like ships in the night

Don’t you go passin' me by

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

Can we hang on?

You can find it, if you’re dyin' to live

If you want to know the secret, hang on

You can find it, if you’re dyin' to live

If you want to know the secret, hang on

You can find it, if you’re dyin' to live

If you want to know the secret, hang on
