The words I write The lines I draw The people I a**ure The rest of them too I got no fortune I hold no sway But I do what I am able For them and for you And we'll hold on best we can That'll be the plan Stand tall my dear You've spent most of your year In the highest and truest Way you knew how And knowledge is nice But knowledge can k** us And we should have died
A thousand d**hs by now But we'll hold on best we can That'll be the plan We'll wish and imagine For what could have been And quietly miss What never came to be Lend me your voice Lift up these stones And cast your nets anew Into the deep blue sea And we'll hold on best we can Hold on the best we can Hold on the best we can That'll be the plan
