[Verse 1]
The signs are getting clearer
Clearer than you need
The writing's on the wall, for you to see

[Chorus 1]
You never thought you'd ever get the taste
You never thought that it could be this good
Just tell me what you want and I'll find the key
Reach out and touch it's all yours

[Chorus 2]
If you hang in long enough, you'll do it
Just hang in long enough

[Verse 2]
You're down on the ground, or so you say
You'd sell the hole in your pocket, if you could find a way
Don't ask me how I know, you don't wanna hear
It's been a long hard road, and the end is getting near

[Chorus]

[Chorus 2]

[Verse 3]
They always say
The best things in life are free
But you want to have everything
Well you're going to have to beg if you want it all

[Chorus 1]

[Bridge]
They'll let you out, then pull you in
Playing hell with your emotions
You'll feel like giving in

[Outro]
So just hang in long enough
