lyrics

HOLD ON MY CHILD

WELL THERE'S MUCH COMING
FAR BEYOND WHAT THE COMMON ONE
CAN HANDLE OR RUN FROM
BUT MY CHILD THERE'S ALWAYS A WAY TO FIND HOME
TO YOUR SOUL TO YOUR SOUL
FACE THE SUN
YOU'LL KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO GET DONE YEAH

WELL THERE'S NASTY POWERS THAT BE
THAT WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU AND ME
DRAGGED THROUGH THE DARK
BUT IT'S NOT THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND
IT'LL BE THE CHAINED LEADING THE CHAINED
ONLY ONE WAY TO BREAK FREE CHILD
GONNA TEACH YOU BAD BEHAVIOUR
I'LL BE RAISING AN INSTIGATOR

MY CHILD GONNA HAVE TO HOLD ON
MY CHILD GONNA HAVE TO HOLD ON
MY CHILD GONNA HAVE TO HOLD ON
MY CHILD GONNA HAVE TO HOLD ON
THINGS ARE GONNA GET WILD AN' FAR GONE

I DON'T ASK MUCH OF MY SON AND DAUGHTER
DON'T MAKE FUN OF NO ONE
AND BE A REBEL A LITTLE ILL-BEHAVED
DON'T FOLLOW AND YOU'LL BE SAVED
NEVER SELF-POLICE
NEVER SELL FREEDOMS FOR PEACE
WHEN THE WORST IS BEING DEAD
THE OVERLORDS DON'T HEAR NO
GRAB THE BARRELS FROM THE SHED YEA OH YEAH

MY CHILD YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO HOLD ON
HOLD ON HOLD ON
THINGS ARE GONNA GET WILD AN' FAR GONE OH YEAH

MY CHILD PLEASE HOLD ON
MY CHILD PLEASE HANG ON
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO HOLD ON
HOLD ON

YOU'RE GONNA KNOW HARD
YOU'RE GONNA KNOW EVIL
YOU'RE GONNA KNOW WHAT IT TAKES
TO SAVE OUR SOULS

YOU'RE GONNA KNOW HARD
YOU'RE GONNA KNOW WHAT IT TAKES
TO SAVE OUR SOULS
