Baptized
Hold your own
And pray that the red light running past doesn't stop at your window
(Red light)
I've spent so long wishing
I've spent so long waiting
It's been too many winters in this cold town
And this city's slowly bringing me down
I've been sleeping on my own a long time
How'd I get up
Been lost under the Cape Town sky
Searching for provenance in a place that I'll never find
Patiently wandering
I've smoothed round the edges
The water doesn't call me anymore
And it's been months since I heard from the shore
Baptized
Hold your own
And pray that the red light running past doesn't stop at your window
I've spent so long wishing
I've spent so long waiting
I've spent so long wishing
I've spent so long waiting
I've spent so long wishing
I've spent so long waiting
I've spent so long wishing
I've spent so long waiting
I've spent so long wishing
(I've been caught up)
(In your shining light)
I've spent so long waiting
(I've been left holding)
(Onto a time that the tide long capsized)
I've spent so long wishing (Hold your own)
(I've been caught up)
(You've gotta hold your own)
(In your shining light)
I've spent so long waiting
You gotta hold your own
Hold
Baptized
Hold your own
(Hold your own)
And pray that the red light running past doesn't stop at your window
(Hold your own)
Baptized
Hold your own
(Hold your own)
And pray that the red light running past doesn't stop at your window
(Gotta hold your own)
Baptized
Hold your own
And pray that the red light running past doesn't stop at your window
(Red light)
I've spent so long wishing
I've spent so long waiting
It's been too many winters in this cold town
And this city is slowly bringing me down
