Jill Hennessy Holding On
Pillars of highway keep on pulsing, and something gray hangs in the air, lead your shadow to the strip mall, pay the girl to bleach your hair, you stare out through the driver's side for some connection, and give a smile but she don't care
Oh give me back the part of me that's gone, just sing me something full of grace right now, please hold me ‘cause i can't keep holding on, holding on, holding on
Picture-perfect parties, so many bosses sailing in, with their eyes that look right through you, talk and patience wearing thin, you're beloved in this family, just until the bids stop coming in
Give me back the part of me that's gone, just sing me something full of grace right now, please hold me ‘cause i can't keep holding on, holding on, holding on

Smiling lily serves up coffee with “hard rain” playing softly… the australian speaks italian as he goes, and the actors sit in circles telling stories as the sun crawls up the mountain, down the canyon, painted rose, there's a song i left in new york i couldn't hold, she's swinging in the park ‘til i get home
Give me back the part of me that's gone, just sing me something full of grace right now, please hold me ‘cause i can't keep holding on, holding on, holding on, can't keep holding on, holding on
