"Hold On" lyrics

I've been accused
I don't conform to the rules like some other guys
It's not my bad side
The subject of life is chasin' down the sky
I question where my steps
Will take me now

Hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on 'cause I cut right through
Hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on, such a pretty view
Won't you hold on for me?

I'm quite amused
By the prospects of my situation
I guess it's my bad side
I know you can't expect too much
I know that I won't play the part
Of no whipping boy, but I will

Hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on 'cause I cut right through
Hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on, such a pretty view
Won't you hold on for me?

There will be no compromises
[?]
I suspect there are surprises
In every little thing I say
Here I go
Every little move I take

And I wonder where
My steps will take me now, oh, no
'Cause I won't play the part
Of no whipping boy, and I tell you

Hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on, 'cause I cut right through
Won't you hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on, such a pretty view

Won't you hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on 'cause I cut right through to you
Hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on 'cause I'll bring it right through to you

Oh, hold on for me
I said hold on for me
When the world is runnin' low
Hold on for me
And you won't let it go
Hold on for me
When the world is runnin' low
Hold on for me
'Cause I won't let it go
Hold on for me
When the world is runnin' down
Hold on for me
'Cause I will stand my ground
Hold on for me
When the world is runnin' down
