    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

    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…

  • @ethanterrymusic7741
    @ethanterrymusic7741 6 років тому

    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
