The blood runs thin
See faces frozen still
Against the wind
The seam is split
The coal face cracked
The lines are long
There's no going back
Through hands of steel
And heart of stone
Our labour day
Has come and gone
Yeah you leave me holding on
In Red Hill Town
See lights go down, I'm...
Hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
The glass is cut
The bottle run dry
Our love runs cold
In the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear
Injured in doubt
I can lose myself
You I can't live without
Yeah you keep me holding on
In Red Hill Town
See the lights go down on
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
Hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
Hold on to
We'll scorch the earth
Set fire to the sky
We stoop so low to reach so high
A link is lost
The chain undone
We wait all day
For night to come
And it comes
Like a hunter child
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
Love... Slowly stripped away
Love... Has seen it's better day
Hanging on
The lights go out on Red Hill
The lights go down on Red Hill
Lights go down on Red Hill town
The lights go down on Red Hill
From father to son The blood runs thin See faces frozen still Against the wind The seam is split The coal face cracked The lines are long There's no going back Through hands of steel And heart of stone Our labour day Has come and gone Yeah you leave me holding on In Red Hill Town See lights go down, I'm... Hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm still waiting I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to The glass is cut The bottle run dry Our love runs cold In the caverns of the night We're wounded by fear Injured in doubt I can lose myself You I can't live without Yeah you keep me holding on In Red Hill Town See the lights go down on I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm still waiting Hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to Hold on to We'll scorch the earth Set fire to the sky We stoop so low to reach so high A link is lost The chain undone We wait all day For night to come And it comes Like a hunter child I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm still waiting I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to Love... Slowly stripped away Love... Has seen it's better day Hanging on The lights go out on Red Hill The lights go down on Red Hill Lights go down on Red Hill town The lights go down on Red Hill Explain Request ×
