"PUSH" lyrics

When the dust settles
Who will I be?
Did my time rolling in nettle
Then I breached
I pulled back but the bow snapped
And the shaft rattled underneath the clouds
So what am I supposed to do now?

After all these years I've learned
How to set my hand in the flame
And keep a straight face
Yeah, it's been my place
But it ain't my home
I've yet to see that place
Until I do
I'll drink my venom
I'll boil in my stew
I'll dig my claws into myself
If I can't dig 'em into something new
And I'll dream of a home
That I've yet to see

True as the arrow
Free as the sky
Simple as air
Bold as fire
Devote over despair
Despair under I
Eye on the arrow
And the arrow flies

(Hold on)
Whereas before
I set the outcome
Now I only set I
Come what may
And that must not change
When patulous dark clouds
Challenge our raised brow
Hold that ground
Hold on

After all these years I've learned
How to set my hand in the flame
And keep a straight face
Yeah, it's been my place
But it ain't my home
I've yet to see that place
Until I do
I'll drink my venom
I'll boil in my stew
I'll dig my claws into myself
If I can't dig 'em into something new
And I'll dream of a home
That I've yet to see

When I reach my grave
At least I can say
That I held on
To my name
And for now
If my name
Is no more than a cord
Through the fog
That's enough
To hold on...
