FINGERHOLD

lyrics

FINGERHOLD

Fingerhold
Clinging to the last remains
The robe in shreds
The many-coloured coat unraveled
Holes in my shoes, I am
Better off barefoot

CHORUS: Are you still holding on?
Will you never let me go?
Are you still holding on?

Weakening grip
Nothing left to grab onto
Slippery slope
What would happen if I just let
Go? Throw my hands up
In surrender

CHORUS

Fingerhold
Who is holding who?
It’s a finger hold

Look me in the eye
Tell me it was real
How does a broken trust ever heal?
Who is holding who?
Who am I clinging to?
