From father to son the blood runs thin
Our faces frozen
(still) against the wind
The seam is split,the coal face cracked
The lines are long and there's no going back
Through hands of steel and a heart of stone
Our labour day has come and gone
And you leave us holding on
In Red Hill Town as the lights go down
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting.I'm holding on
You're all that's left to hold on to
The glass is cut,the bottle run dry
Our love runs cold in the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear,injured in doubt
I can lose myself,you can't live without
Because you keep me holding on
In Red Hill Town as the lights go down
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting,I'm holding on
You're all that's left to hold on to
And we scorch the earth,set fire in the sky,
Stoop so low to reach so high
A link is lost,the chain undone
Now we wait all day for the night to come
And it comes.And it comes
Like a hunter
(child) I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
We see love slowly stripped away
Our love has seen a better day
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
See the lights go down on Red Hill Town
See lights go down on Red Hill Town
