Lyrics: I've come here nine times asking you do not make it ten I'm peeling off all the armor that protected my skin Apologize, I'm laying down my ego to rest Could you be mine forever just in case it exists? I think about the old days What we've been through to survive Do we get better with time? Tell me I'm wrong Looking back to the start Who we were when we met This box of pictures tells a story When we fight, we forget And I can barely recognize us Back then we were obsessed Can we cut out this madness and get back to the best? Think about the old days What we've been through to survive Do we get better with time? Tell me I'm wrong I'm looking to you always We follow the same guiding light Passing like ships in the night Can we hang on? Can we hang on? Can we hang on? Can we hang on? Can we hang on? This could've gone either way If one of us had walked If I'd gone off, and you caved in And we broke it off I'd be lost I'd be chasing some broke down dream I'd be bored to death But we cannot stay forever young and out of our heads Out of our heads I'll think about tomorrow If I can get through tonight I know that we'll be alright Can we be strong? I'm looking to you always Even though we're like ships in the night Don't you go passing me by Can we hang on? Can we hang on? Can we hang on? Can we hang on? Can we hang on? You can find it If you're dying to live If you want to know the secret, hang on You can find it If you're dying to live If you want to know the secret, hang on You can find it If you're dying to live If you want to know the secret, hang on
No Suits. The deep dark depths of UA-cam brought me here and I’m soooooooo glad. This is a magical song that the world needs! And I want to give a big shout out to this crazy dancing guy..... you are me in my dreams!!!!
They're album robbers & cowards is fucking phenomenal one of my favorites you should check it out by the way have you heard the song hang me out to dry?
The emotion in this song is incredible! Those lyrics! That melody! Wow. This is truly beautiful. This song deserves becoming a massive hit. Totally looking forward to the new album.
My husband and I are going through some hard times after 16 years and nothing describes our experience better than this song. Thank you for your words, your deep understanding of the human heart and what it takes to hang on.
I listened to this so many times when I was going through the worst breakup of my life. Makes me wonder if I had heard it sooner that it would’ve changed the way things worked out, the lyrics mean so much & cut so deep

W H O is this stylish dancing man?? I go between liking him, being charmed, to thinking wow. This choreographed OR THIS RASCAL IS A STREET DUDE they got to feelin sorry for, gave him a task so giving him $$ would keep their conscious clear...
Suits season 8. Still can’t believe I didn’t watch this show back in time. Definitely glad it’s streaming now. Not only is it a great show but it’s shining a spotlight on great music like this.
Been listening since day 1 and just recently my father passed due to a very unfortunate situation 😭. This song I played to him a lot and I dedicate this song to him I love you Dad and I will always hang on to b a better person.
I just can't get over how intense the music and lyrics are yet this simple music video was able to match that intensity. Really good song, I'll be putting this on repeat and singing along for a while.
They played this last night in Columbus. Seen them about 6 times now. Every show I wish they would just keep playing until I can't stand anymore. Greatness
I love this video. The song is otherworldly as most of their songs are and the video touches the heights that the song reaches. Unlike most of their videos.
this is sooo beautiful! your music gets me through so much and I'm really grateful to you guys for it. I love the positive messages you're sending and the sound of the new music. can't wait for the album&the tour!
At first look I didn't really think that the guy who's dancing is a real dancer, but if you look closely at his moves I believe now that he is a real dancer. Oh by the way I've been a fan of Cold war kids for years now but listening to them high is a whole nother story man this is awesome
We used to vacation brought me to Hang me out to dry, which in turn brought me to Love is mystical which brought me here. All superb songs. Underrated AF band
I love this song. Reminds me of what I'm going through right now. Idk who is on my side and who's against me. I just want my kids and there moms to know I love you guys more than anything. I'm sorry I let drugs fml up.
I freaking love this video.! This is so right on I so get it from Jackie in Lafayette Louisiana where the good times roll I will see y'all. I will see y'all Saturday and I'm happy to help
This video is so fucking beautiful. The symbolism is so very raw and basic, and still complex and disguised. People may watch this video and see a tree hugging weed dealer out of a job dancing in the street. But it's simply a man searching for meaning/answers/truth/progress/metamorphosis and he is seen walking a road between the hard, cold, industrialized, confined (fenced off) reality of his past; as everything that he has been through to survive and the beach, where he's been dabbling with the idea of taking a voyage into the brave new...and then retreating to the rocks and back to the street. The road is the divide between what he's hanging on to that prevents him from moving on with life, and what his dreams are made of, and he can be seen walking through the middle of this street dancing at the notion of that freedom, or pounding away at the fence in frustrating endearment. He starts sprinting at the point where the lyrics say "You can find it if you're dying to live. If you want to know the secret hang on". You see him fall but eventually this story leaves us with him standing on the shore with the waves finally at his feet. The title "Can We Hang On?" is a paradoxical irony in and of itself. Can we hang on to the past...please oh can we? or can we hang on for a little longer to learn the secret of happiness.
This song properly makes me cry. Like floods lol. Wtf is that about??? It makes me feel. I don’t know what I feel but it hits me somewhere I don’t understand. It’s amazing. Thanks Suits lol
So underrated! Why are these guys not HUGE???
Lyrics:
I've come here nine times asking you do not make it ten
I'm peeling off all the armor that protected my skin
Apologize, I'm laying down my ego to rest
Could you be mine forever just in case it exists?
I think about the old days
What we've been through to survive
Do we get better with time?
Tell me I'm wrong
Looking back to the start
Who we were when we met
This box of pictures tells a story
When we fight, we forget
And I can barely recognize us
Back then we were obsessed
Can we cut out this madness and get back to the best?
Think about the old days
What we've been through to survive
Do we get better with time?
Tell me I'm wrong
I'm looking to you always
We follow the same guiding light
Passing like ships in the night
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
This could've gone either way
If one of us had walked
If I'd gone off, and you caved in
And we broke it off
I'd be lost
I'd be chasing some broke down dream
I'd be bored to death
But we cannot stay forever young and out of our heads
Out of our heads
I'll think about tomorrow
If I can get through tonight
I know that we'll be alright
Can we be strong?
I'm looking to you always
Even though we're like ships in the night
Don't you go passing me by
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
You can find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
You can find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
You can find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
Thanks

Cold War Kids will never fail me.
This band is nothing but consistently catchy and beautiful music that talks real talk!
My husband and I are going through some hard times after 16 years and nothing describes our experience better than this song. Thank you for your words, your deep understanding of the human heart and what it takes to hang on.
Did you make it through the hard times together?
I listened to this so many times when I was going through the worst breakup of my life. Makes me wonder if I had heard it sooner that it would’ve changed the way things worked out, the lyrics mean so much & cut so deep
My worst breakup was when I dumped Pamela Anderson in the 90s
Lyrics
I come here nine times asking you to not make it ten
I'm peeling off all the honor and protecting my skin
Apologize, I'm laying down my ego to rest
Would you be mine forever? Just in case it exists
I think about the old days
What we didn't do to survive
Do we get better with time?
Tell me I'm wrong
Looking back to the start who we were when we met
This box of pictures tells a story when we fight, we forget
And I can barely recognize those back that we were obsessed
Can't cut out this madness and get back to the best
Think about the old days
What we didn't do to survive
Do we get better with time?
Tell me I'm wrong
I'm looking to your old ways
We follow the same dotted line
Passing like ships in the night
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we…
Thanks for lyric!

THANK YOU QUANTICO!
I don't even watch the show, but it was on TV while I was working.
Heard the song and I just HAD to Shazam it.
SO GOOD
You really should watch it
Victor Taiwo facts
I just saw the episode with this song a few minutes ago!
Been listening since day 1 and just recently my father passed due to a very unfortunate situation 😭. This song I played to him a lot and I dedicate this song to him I love you Dad and I will always hang on to b a better person.
This is one of the best songs I have ever heard!!..How is this masterpiece so underated?!
This is how I walk when I have headphones in
please, never stop making music.
Please, shut up. They have pure talent. They use their voice for good. Not typing some demoting comment on UA-cam.
@@EG-ed6by What...
@@EG-ed6by demoting?
@@wnoah3352 I'm confused I don't remember making this comment
Thank you, Quantico, for promoting another great, instant classic Cold War Kids song
I just can't get over how intense the music and lyrics are yet this simple music video was able to match that intensity. Really good song, I'll be putting this on repeat and singing along for a while.
I always appreciate their meaningful lyrics. It's rare nowadays. Bring on April 7th!! 🙌🏾
Broke down dreams. Killer lyrics.
barriehomeboy Thanks and your welcome.
They played this last night in Columbus. Seen them about 6 times now. Every show I wish they would just keep playing until I can't stand anymore. Greatness
Can we hang on? Chasing a dream? We will be alright. We gotta be strong!!! ❤️ The secret is to hang on
I've listened to this song so much that I've internalized it. It's a part of me now.
2024 hear this song on the radio at work for years. Finally got the title and song love it.
One of the most beautifully written and performed songs I've ever heard. Seeing this song live is also something special.
That guy dancing is happiness and freedom
And a large amount of regret
Pure self indulgent douche baggery actually.
Just amazing
Quantico! :)
Aioaaa im here coz of Quantico hehe
i listened to it in quantico and im fall in love of this song
Aioaaa Shazam
Quantico on Netflix ,.....
Ive heard this in quantico as well.. i didnt dl it.. but then i heard it ju, now watching suits 8x04.. i guess i gotta have it then.. :-)
I saw Cold War Kids on their 20th anniversary tour a couple of months ago. Man, it was so good. Highly recommend seeing them live!
they're still killing it. the fact there are still uniquely talented ARTISTS and MUSICIANS like CWK gives me hope.
So many of my songs are from suits. Suits just have an unbelievable soundtrack! ❤️
So Trueeee!
Yes. I love this. Same guy from the "First" video. LOVE.
This one got me sold in 2 seconds. Loved the hook in this and 'first'
Maravillosa canción!
Y una banda fantástica!
I can’t with how beautiful this is 😍
A book brought me here and Im greatful😍
This guys gym routine after work is intense, nice!
this song changed my life. period.
I was lead here by QUANTICO Everyone else from SUITS(which I JUST started watching- great!)
Yeah, I'm late on a lot of shows
Led here by quantico too!
Ahhh yes, Cold War Kids, one of the greatest (albums) ever. Thank you Tony Carey!
His voice is so distinct and remembered. This does sound exactly like First but it's honestly better. I love this song.
One of my favorites. ☆
God brought me here. Thanks for the beautiful music.
what a Song! what a great Voice!!!
Suits brought me hear awesome song!
Que buena rola, no puedo dejar de escucharla.
I love this video. The song is otherworldly as most of their songs are and the video touches the heights that the song reaches. Unlike most of their videos.
Quantico season 2 ep 14 brought me here.
Incredible sound track
brilliant ,ive never heard him before just great music
This song is just perfect 🎧😃
My sister introduced me to this song. It’s awesome 👏🏻
been a fan for nine years this song makes it ten
Rachell Edmondson since Lolla 2009 here 😘😘
this is sooo beautiful! your music gets me through so much and I'm really grateful to you guys for it. I love the positive messages you're sending and the sound of the new music. can't wait for the album&the tour!
Love these guys! Always discover their new music.
Quantico brought me here and I’m in love! Needed this beautiful song❤️
This song has one of those instantly classic melodies, reminds me of "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals for some reason
yeah i love it so much. it sounds like gospel choir type of thing
Ive heard this in quantico.. and i didnt dl it.. but i heard it again ju now watching suits 8x04.. i guess i gotta have it then.. :-)
suits s08e04 brought me here. damn cool music.
LOVE LOVE L O V E THIS TRACK. SO BEAUTIFUL
This song is sooo effing good!
At first look I didn't really think that the guy who's dancing is a real dancer, but if you look closely at his moves I believe now that he is a real dancer. Oh by the way I've been a fan of Cold war kids for years now but listening to them high is a whole nother story man this is awesome
first time listening to this group, im liking it👍👍
We used to vacation brought me to Hang me out to dry, which in turn brought me to Love is mystical which brought me here. All superb songs. Underrated AF band
Love this song.
This group is so underrated
요즘 날씨에 어울리는 노래. 몇번을 들어도 질리지가 않아요.
Yep. Already on repeat
These guys are going to start popping soon, glad I came here before it starts
Eon lol cold war kids have been famous for a while
John Blankenberger depends where you live. they are barely known in germany.
This is their sixth studio album ....... pretty sure they've popped already
This is a great song too. Miracle Mile, Love is Mystical, and this one. Good stuff.
keep coming back for this track. powerful vibe
I love this song. Reminds me of what I'm going through right now. Idk who is on my side and who's against me. I just want my kids and there moms to know I love you guys more than anything. I'm sorry I let drugs fml up.
This song reminds me of first
Joshua Bennett totally! Feels like the second half to it. Self discovery
Dalton Taylor it would make sense that guy looks like the drunk from the first video. Here he looks clean and in a better place.
A superior version. This has far more heart than 'First'
Has that vibe, but this song is far better. Great song. Great band!
+1 When i heard it in "Suits" i Remembered "First" !
These guys are awesome
Listened to them play this live last week! They are amazing live.
Quantico season 2 has brought me here! This song rocks!

This should be a Big Hit 🎯
Good songs found from good shows hit different😍 ( Suits ).
