Lyrics

HANGING ON
by Jennifer Gammill

Verse 1
Trying to wrench this
Candy from my fingers
But I’m the kid who’s
Won his Wonka ticket

Not enough sense
To unclench this golden treasure
I feel the press
I’ll defy the laws of nature

CHORUS
Why do I keep hanging on, hanging on
Why do I keep banging on, banging on your door
I keep dragging on, I keep dragging on this war

Verse 2
On the attack, want you back
I’m at the zenith
Can’t bear the slap or the crack
But you’re my weakness

Must we draw swords and cross words
Any longer
But you’re going slack
And your will to fight is over

Bridge
I don’t want to admit that you’re done
That you’re done
I thought that you were the one
Were my one
Now I’m coming undone
I’ve been stung by your tongue
Can you just leave a crumb
Just a brush of your love

So I can
I can
I can

ALT CHORUS
Keep hanging on, hanging on
I can keep begging ah, begging ah, for more
Keep dragging on, keep

CHORUS
Why do I keep hanging on, hanging on
Why do I keep banging on, banging on your door
I keep dragging on, I keep dragging on this war





You said goodbye, don’t know why
I’m in denial


denial
you’ve said you’re done

You wouldn’t commit
Resist
Permit
Omit


touch
crumb
stung
