Holding onto you

On the line between life and death
You see me holding on, barely breathing
And through it all your warm, tender embrace
Leaves my broken heart healing

But why you?

You hold me close, til I can't escape
Tightly, snug in your arms
And though I feel his eyes on me
My expression doesnt feel alarmed

Can it be true?

Under your heartfelt eyes
It feels so much like falling
Under the charcoal sky
I feel I'm falling

Then there's you

And through this shrouded fear
Their bitterness is all I feel
With your whispers in my ear
I think I know the truth

I'm holding onto you
