[Verse 1]
Did you wonder why
You tossed and turned all night trembling (to this world)
Why the earth stood still and the birds don't cry
[Chorus]
You're not holding on to this world
You're not holding on to this world
(Did you wonder why?)
[Verse 2]
Did you hear the shriek that was moving in the wind? (To this world)
Did you feel it then you had no place to go? (To this world)
Did you need some peace that night in the ground below? (To this world)
Is it good enough now that there's nothing to hold?
[Chorus]
You're not holding on to this world
You're not holding on to this world
[Post-Chorus]
You're not what you were
You're not what you were, you're not
You're not holding on
You've hurt everyone
[Verse 3]
Did you hear the saints when you killed your man?
Did you hold on tight to sin burning in your hand?
'Cause you're not holding on to this
You're not holding on
You're not holding on to this
You're not holding on to this world
