Holding Through the Wasteland

(Verse 1) Cracked pavement symphony, echoes in the night Streetlights bleed like memories, casting shadows in the fight We're tangled in this wreckage, hearts a twisted metal mesh But your hand, a lifeline warm, keeps me from this endless thresh (Chorus) They say I gotta let you go, this love's a burning pyre But the flames, they lick and dance with us, fueling our desire This world's a wasteland, baby, you're the only fertile ground So I'll hold you tight, through storm and blight, no matter what they've found (Verse 2) We built a fortress on the fault lines, where the earth is always shaking But with every tremor, closer we are, a love no earthquake's breaking They see the scars, the battle wounds, the wreckage in our eyes But don't they see the beauty too, the way our tattered spirit flies? (Chorus) They say I gotta let you go, this love's a burning pyre But the flames, they lick and dance with us, fueling our desire This world's a wasteland, baby, you're the only fertile ground So I'll hold you tight, through storm and blight, no matter what they've found (Bridge) Maybe we're a twisted vine, around a heart that's scarred But we'll grow stronger, intertwined, reaching for a distant star (Chorus) They say I gotta let you go, this love's a burning pyre But the flames, they lick and dance with us, fueling our desire This world's a wasteland, baby, you're the only fertile ground So I'll hold you tight, through storm and blight, no matter what they've found (Outro)
