It was almost every night
I'd be blinded by the light
With the sun I'd drag myself to bed
Sometimes I'd wake up in a sweat
All my sheets were soakin' wet
With the sounds exploding in my head

There's the uniform I wore
Hangin' on the closet door
I'll put it on to feel it one more time
These memories I can't erase
Like the lines across my face
I can't seem to leave this dream behind

I'm still hangin' on
I'm still hangin' on
There were people makin' bets
That I'd be dead and gone
Oh, but I'm still hangin' on

So many friends along the way
I lost and they're not here today
One wrong move and you'd be history
I was tryin' to pull my life together
You could knock me down with just a feather
How I'm still here remains a mystery

I'm still hangin' on
I'm still hangin' on
There were people placin' bets
That I'd be dead and gone
Oh, but I'm still hangin' on
I'm still hangin' on
I'm still hangin' on
Even some of my friends said
That I was too far gone
Oh, but I'm still hangin' on
