This is the hope that you hold back
When you need to get it on track
And you're feening for the feedback
Until you're reeling from the relapse
You get loaded til you just ignore
Every feeling that you had before
But you're believing that there's something more
Play along! Pretend that we could be the ones who break the mould
We'll stay so strong, all their violence can't defeat our beating hearts
And when they're gone, you and me will completely re-write these laws
We'll change them all! Let's change them all.
Play along! Play along.
You hit a low when you rolled that
Leaving Martin with your old man
To the ravine until it goes black
Now you're dreaming with your cold hands
We're gonna hold you til you come back home
Maybe this beat will move your sleeping bones
You'll be the reason that we keep on going
We keep on going on and...
[Chorus]
