The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Mind strong, body strong Try to find equilibrium Head straight, screwed on We screwed up for too long I don't want to lean on the waves I watched the storm evaporate I think of you and starry skies That keeps you so alive Let's walk through the fire together Disappear in the golden sands It's all in your face I see a break It's like the sound of winter The bleeding of love The silent escape You've got to hang on to yourself It's like the sound of winter Medusa smiles and Judas lips Open arms and finger tips Love bites, and recompense I'll be with you until the end Let's walk through the fire together Disappear in the golden sands It's all in your face I see a break It's like the sound of winter The bleeding of love The silent escape You've got to hang on to yourself All in your face I see a break It's like the sound of winter The bleeding of love The silent escape You've got to hang on to yourself It's like the sound of winter Hang on to yourself Hang on to yourself It's like the sound of winter It's all in your face I see a break It's like the sound of winter The bleeding of love The silent escape You've got to hang on to yourself It's like the sound of winter It's like the sound of winter Hang on to yourself Hang on to yourself
