hold on to nothing

hold on to nothing, hold on to coldest steel, it chills you down inside, when you see just what is real, paste it up and tear it down, move it on along the rushing road, seventeen fahrenheit, feel the winter grow, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it down, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it down, nowhere to write it down, write it down, step down the alley, walking against the stony crowd, trying not to listen, but they shout so loud, chew you up and spit you out, crush you between its finger and its thumb, the world in all its anger, oh and there's always more to come, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it down, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it, there's nowhere to write it down, nowhere to write it down, write it down
