Hold Still Lyrics


Why is it impossible now
To trace every echo
Back to its birth?
Why is it impossible now
To kiss every fever away?There is truth thats hiding
Behind every wall that surrounds us.
It takes a lifetime
To pull the bricks away.Why is it impossible now to know?
(Is this the way to understand?)With the weakest of ears
Well try only to hear
The sound of our voice,
Louder than fear of waking up
Alone.Let conversations carry
The unraveling of skin.
The ink will pour an answer
In childrens handwriting.If all words are cameras,
Hold still.
Shutters slide to unveil

Fingerprints of angels
And a language made of film.With surgical precision,
Well cut every piece into order.
And beneath soft faces,
Well climb halfway to God.Why is it impossible now to know?
(Is this the way to understand?)
Why is it impossible now
To trace every echo
Back to its birth?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Ryan O'Neal's journey has taken many turns over the past twelve years under the moniker of Sleeping At Last. What began in 1999 as a Chicago-based teenage garage band has organically transitioned to original songwriter O'Neal as a solo artist continuing the gorgeous thread of work that has amazed and captivated listeners over all these years. Near its inception, Sleeping At Last's amateur debut album, "Capture," was noticed by Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan, who helped expose the music to the major-label world.
