Hang on
You know I hang on

Strumming in my basement on a Tuesday night
Off to work the next day
Lately all through the hours
I’m thinking man I took the long way
I’m longing for my predictable, reliable
Rush of coffee every morning
Just to make it to my break
And I’m the only one awake
And I search the earth
And I …

Hang on
You know I hang on

There’s a voice I’m listening to now
Coming o’er the airwaves
Says you make a change
Look forward to a brighter day
I’m thinking do I trust it? Will I speak it?
Will I let it in?
Inspiration, see it light up my face
Like the sun shining
And I search the earth
I search the earth
And I …

Hang on
Hang on
Hang on
You know I hang on

I started this song ten years ago. Given life’s inevitable cycles it seemed to apply to me again while I was making this album. That’s when I finished the chorus.
