i don't need no one else
i get by by myself
these feelings i will hold inside me
i listen to my heart
this world could fall apart
could it be that i'm afraid to see the light?

it used to be easy
was it all in my mind?

living like i do
searching for a clue
looking for the wonder child
one thing i can do is hide this fear and
hold on
hold on

i could convince myself
don't need no one else
no reasons why i act this way
so hard to take sometimes
i've seen the danger signs
caught up inside a world that no one knows

it used to be easy
was it all in my mind

living like i do
searching for the truth
looking for the wonder child
one thing i can do is hide this fear and
hold on
hold on
hold on
hold on

i'm on my own even if i could get near you
so confused i know that i would walk right by you
alone for days, even if i hold on
so out of phase, even if i hold on
even if i hold on

living like i do
searching for a clue
looking for the wonder child
one thing i can do is hide this fear and
hold on
hold on
living like i do
searching for the truth
looking for the wonder child

you've got to hold on
hold on
looking for the wonder child
one thing i can do is hide this fear and
hold on
hold on
hold on
hold on
to go on, you hold on
