Hold My Hand
Thrash metal meets punk rock with a fast, aggressive pulse and half-time breaks, driven by raw male vocals, feral shouted doubles, and intimate close-mic lines in the verses. Acoustic fingerpicked passages open the verses, then electric guitars slam in for the chorus with mournful bends and gang echoes. Reversed swells, drum fill lifts, and cavernous reverb tails add a haunted edge; bright, punchy, emotional mix., acoustic, punk, metal guitar, deep, rock, emotional, soft, metal, raw, slow

Lyrics
Verse 1
Your boots by the door
Still dust on the soles
I traced your leaving
Like I knew your bones
The room keeps your shape
In the chair, in the wall
I bite down on nothing
So I don't call
Pre-Chorus
If you're half gone now
Then pull me close
I don't need forever
I just need you most
Chorus
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'm still here
I'm still burning, man
Hold my hand
Don't let go
If I lose you here
I lose the only road
Verse 2
Your ring in the sink
Cold metal, small bruise
I hear your name
In the taps and the tools
I wore your silence
Like a shirt too tight
Now I stand in the dark
And fight the night
Pre-Chorus
If you're half gone now
Then pull me close
I don't need forever
I just need you most
Chorus
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'm still here
I'm still burning, man
Hold my hand
Don't let go
If I lose you here
I lose the only road
Bridge
Say you remember
The shape of my fear
Say you can still feel
When I disappear
One last second
One last spark
Put your name in my mouth
Like a match in the dark
Final Chorus
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'm still here
I'm still burning, man
Hold my hand
Don't let go
If I lose you here
I lose the only road
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
(hold my hand)
Hold my hand
