Hang on to Your Resistance
Embrace Tomorrow's Resilience with 'Hang on to Your Resistance'
Lyrics
I was choking on attempted laughter
I struggled to express genuine laughter
As I looked up from the room
Observing my surroundings from a particular space
A symphony of breezes caught me
A harmonious blend of gentle winds captured my attention
Drifting around my tomb
Drifting around a place that feels like my burial site
Watching to see if they knew me
Observing to check if they recognized or understood me
With my faceless intruders pride
Possessing a sense of pride despite being faceless intruders
And even with those illusions, well I
Despite maintaining false beliefs, I couldn't escape or find refuge
Could not escape to hide,
Unable to conceal myself
I could not hide
Reiterating the inability to hide
Good God you know I could not hide
Expressing desperation and affirmation of inability to hide
But I cried
Experiencing emotional distress, leading to tears
Hang on, hang on, hang, hang on
An urging to persevere and endure
Hang on, hang on, hang, hang on
Repetition of the encouragement to endure
My friends say it rained yesterday
Referring to information received from acquaintances
At least that's what all my friends say,
Emphasizing the shared perception of past events
Well it looks like it's going to rain today
Anticipating unfavorable weather conditions based on reports
Least that's what all the papers say
Reiterating the forecast as reported by newspapers
Now a Toronto subway is not a cool place to be
Describing the Toronto subway as an undesirable place
When you're feeling lonely and low
Highlighting emotional distress when feeling isolated and down
The tracks look warm and inviting, well it
Viewing the subway tracks as an inviting but risky option
Must be a fast way to go
Suggesting it might be a quick way to end one's life
Hang on to your resistance
Encouraging the preservation of one's resilience
Don't let it slip away
Advising against letting resistance or strength slip away
Hang on to your resistance, because
Reiterating the importance of holding onto one's resistance
Tomorrow's a new day, tomorrow's a new day
Optimistically emphasizing the prospect of a new day
Good God you know tomorrow's a new day
Affirming the belief in the promise of a better tomorrow
Hang on, hang on, hang, hang on
Repetition of the encouragement to endure
