Simmer down tonight with me There’s little talk between me and my friends The trick of light, the trick of me The trick of silence bleeds my brothers red Little towns where eyes are sheathed People drown in time inside their head Little diamond - You, I mean Holding on to all those words unsaid You’re still holding on, holding on just like me You’re holding on, holding on just like me Now who will hold the bar? And who can hold it the longest? Even if it tears us apart At least we can call it ours Would you have the strength to fall? Would you have the strength to fall? Simmer down and come undone Let’s dig around in what’s left of the dust Little town, your mind was young Look around to see what you’ll become Boys are cold, that’s what they teach Boys are numb and that’s just how they’ll be And pass that down the family tree You’d grabbed the bar before you could even speak You’re still holding on, holding on just like me Now who will hold the bar? And who can hold it the longest? Even if it tears us apart At least we can call it ours Would you have the strength to fall? Would you have the strength to fall? So break the chains of our shackled youth Where we learned that we’re covered by the colour of blue And that we need to find a lover who’s a mother to you The men who smother the truth, maybe a brother to you Maybe another recluse Just may discover a new strength to fall so Now who will hold the bar? And who can hold it the longest? Even if it tears us apart At least we can call it ours Would you have the strength to fall? Would you have the strength to fall? Now who will hold the bar? And who can hold it the longest? Even if it tears us apart At least we can call it ours Would you have the strength to fall? Would you have the strength to fall?
