Analysis of And When You Feel Like Letting Go



Hold on,
Hold on to yourself,
Even if the pain is too much.
Hold on to yourself,
Even if you lose control.
Hold on to yourself,
Even if they bring you down.
Hold on to yourself,
Even if you can't find your way.
Hold on to yourself,
Even when you feel like letting go.
