Can We Hang On?

I come here nine times asking you to not make it ten
I'm peeling off all the honor and protecting my skin
Apologize, I'm laying down my ego to rest
Would you be mine forever? Just in case it exists

I think about the old days
What we didn't do 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 those back that we were obsessed
Can't cut out this madness and get back to the best

Think about the old days
What we didn't do to survive
Do we get better with time?
Tell me I'm wrong
I'm looking to your old ways
We follow the same dotted line
Passing 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 walked
If I'd gone off, and you caved in
And we broke it off
I'd be lost
I'd be chasing 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 think about tomorrow
If I can get through tonight
I know that we'll be alright
Can we be strong?
I'm looking to your old ways
Isn't it like ships in the night?
Don't you go passing me by
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?

You can't find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
You can't find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
You can't find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
