Holding – Sunday 15th April 2001

Holding

holding onto you
what else is there to do
post apocalyptic visions
and wailing sirens
pass us by in the street
and we hurry on,
because we have people to meet
holding onto you
amongst the lightning
i tell you a story
and it is all so frightening
what else is there to do
i swapped cards for stickers
a friend for some glue
and still they bicker
sitting down and facing each other
holding onto you
what else can we do
