How Can I Hold On

Back when you were my life
you gave me something that i could live for
but now everything's changed and you're
gone but i'm still here waiting

how can i hold on
with nothing to hold on to
why should i hold on
when there's nothing to hold on to

sex made me feel alive but now
i'm so bored with mindless passion
drugs were somewhere to hide
but they've left me feeling cold and empty

so how can i hold on
with nothing to hold on to
why should i hold on
when there's nothing to hold on to

i thought you were my friend. that you
were someone that i could turn to
but now i realize that you
were a friend when you needed something

so how can i hold on
with nothing to hold on to
why should i hold on
when there's nothing to hold on to
