[Intro] Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail [Verse 1] I came in with a heartbeat And a pocket full of dust You put your palm against my shoulder Said, "Move because you must" One step by the doorway Two steps through the doubt If the floor begins to tremble We will still find our way out [Chorus] Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail Hold on, hold on Let the small light prevail Hold on, hold on When the hard wheels wail Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail [Verse 2] Low room, old wood, blue heat A brass hinge in the wall Every time the engine answers I can feel the ceiling crawl You do not need a sermon You do not need a sign Put your breath beside my breathing And let your pulse meet mine [Chorus] Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail Hold on, hold on Let the small light prevail Hold on, hold on When the hard wheels wail Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail [Bridge] [Choir] Hold—hold—hold On—on—on [Lead] Can you feel it in your fingers? [Choir] Hold—hold—hold On—on—on [Lead] Can you hear the old room turn? [Choir] Hold—hold—hold On—on—on [Lead] No retreat and no surrender [Choir] Keep your hand on the rail [Final Chorus] Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail Hold on, hold on Let the small light prevail Hold on, hold on When the hard wheels wail Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail [Outro] Hold on, hold on Keep your hand on the rail
