Hold On

Written years ago under very different circumstances and festering ever since.

let's talk of opportunity
let's talk about survival
let's talk of possibilities
as if they have a rival

it's common to know everything
that's grown up all around us
but when we start imagining
we come up quite dumbfunded

hold on - your mind
get out - on time
hold on - your mind

there's little you can say to me
that doesn't sound enticing
I'm sure that continuity
is something they're advising

if this were telemarketed
we'd hang up fast and angry
they try to put it in our head
that what we feel is envy

hold on - your mind
get out - on time
hold on - your mind

please forgive me, let me go
for I don't love you anymore
there is nothing you don't know
and nothing I can say not known before
