Lyrics
Verse 1
Caught in the glow of a screen so bright Seeing words that I can't erase Rumors posted in the dead of night
Truth gets lost inside the maze
Once I was sure who I could trust
Now it’s clear there’s just empty names
Try to drown the noise with another verse
But the silence never fades
Chorus
Everyone’s got something to say
And none of it is ever true
They’re painting lies on every wall But they can’t walk a mile in my shoes Feels like the whole world hates me
But I still step up to the mic
Fake news flying through the air
Yeah, I’m holding on tonight [Post-Chorus]
Whoa, whoa, holding on tonight
Whoa, whoa, I’m still holding on
Verse 2
Heard my name dragged through the smoke
Every Friday night at the pub Stares at work, rumours on the wire, like I'm a man that they need to judge
I swear to you, it finished clean No storm, no fight, no mess
She hated the songs I’d write at night
I guess she couldn’t handle the rest
Pre-Chorus
Can’t believe what I’ve become
Everyone picking a side
They don’t even care about the truth
But I’m not running, I won’t hide
Chorus
Everyone’s got something to say
And none of it is ever true
They’re painting lies on every wall
But they can’t walk a mile in my shoes
Feels like the whole world’s against me But I still step up to the mic
Fake news flying through the air Yeah, I’m holding on tonight
Post-Chorus
Whoa, whoa, holding on tonight
Whoa, whoa, I’m still holding on [Bridge]
I see my face allover their screens But they don't show the man I am I’m chasing fame in the city lights
While the rumor mill spins again
I keep my circle razor-thin
Every secret’s just a loaded gun
If they only knew what I keep inside
They’d run before the morning comes
Chorus
Everyone’s got something to say
And none of it is ever true
They’re painting lies on every wall
But they can’t walk a mile in my shoes
Feels like the whole world’s against me
But I still step up to the mic
Fake news flying through the air
Yeah, I’m holding on tonight
Outro
Whoa, whoa, holding on tonight
Whoa, whoa, I’m still holding on
If I crumble, I’ll rebuild
Still fighting for something real
Whoa, whoa, holding on tonight
Whoa,
