Bending over backwards just to hear you tell me I float the wrong way
Don't know why I do it, some would say I'm just addicted to pain
All the time it takes, like a flicker in the night
Dancing around in circles, won't make it alright
Whoa, oh
Oh, and it's wishful thinking, am I a fool for still believing?
I can't stop feeling I'm hanging on
Yes, I'm hanging on
Screaming hallelujah
Yeah, baby, you were my religion
I'd follow you to hell if I knew that you'd be around
Used to be a dream, used to be fun
But we were both wild until the damage was done
Whoa, oh
Oh, and it's wishful thinking and mockingbirds are singing
I can barely breathe but I'm hanging on
Yeah, I'm hanging on
I'm hanging on, yeah, I'm still hanging on
Our lives are changing
There's no saving
No more holding hands
It's just who you are
This is who I am
Oh, and it's wishful thinking and oh, a fool for never leaving
I can't stop feeling I'm hanging on
I'm still hanging on
Oh, and it's wishful thinking
Mockingbirds are singing
Oh, I can barely breathe but I'm hanging on
Yes, I'm hanging on
I'm still hanging on, baby, hanging on
I could have another, but I wouldn't wanna start all over
We've gone too far and we can't turn back around
