"What Hold" appears on the William Fitzsimmons album 'Gold In The Shadow.'


Lyrics:

What hold this has on you
Heavy shoulder
Your feet tied to the floor

Your former self would
Hate these fixtures
Of metal wire and wood

As you lay down in
Stranger's linen
The bluish scars you hide
Reminisce of sweet addiction
Strings you never tied

Would you bend these bars
That hold you
Keep you from the peace
And stillness come

And lay your head
Beside a better burden
Until the heal has come

As you depart from
Short duration
And cut the bracelet off

The withered arm and
Port of entry
The living for the numb

I would bend these bars
That hold you
Keep you from the peace
And stillness come

And lay your head
Beside a better burden
Until the heal has come

You will see sunrise again

  • Mooi lied! Beautiful song!

  • @feelit4 I do love Priscilla Ahn, but on this song it's Grace Read. it's a beautiful song, anyway. my favorite of his

  • @LittleToyHorse yeah that's what it's about, he said it at a concert I was at a month ago. It's about heroin/cocaine.

  • The only song that has every made me cry.

  • @letsgetamplified sounds more like priscilla ahn to me, not sure though

  • so breathtaking

  • I think I figured out this song, It's about a drug addict, "withered arm, port of entry" "What hold this has on you" "As you depart from short duration, and cut the bracelet off"

    someones injecting something in them

  • Beautiful.. William is the nicest guy in person. This may be the best off the new record..

  • Is this Brooke Fraser providing backing vocals? I was convinced it was her!

  • beautiful. this gives me hope in the darkness. thank you. :)
