All I Need

If nothing is safe then I don't understand
You call me a boy but I'm trying to be the man
One more day and it's all slipping with the sand
You touch my lips and grab the back of my hand

If all I've got is slipping away
I meant what I said when I said "till my dying day"
I'm holding on to you holding on to me
Maybe it's all gone black but you're all I see

The walls are shaking, I hear them sound the alarm
Glass is breaking so don't let go of my arm
Grab your bags and a picture of where we met
All that we'll leave behind is all that's left

If everything we've got is thrown away
We've gotta rock and rock til our dying day
I'm holding on to you holding on to me
Maybe it's all we got but it's all I need

And if all we've got, is what no one can break
I know I love you, if that's all we can take
The tears were coming down
They were mixing with the rain
I know I love you, if that's all we can take

A fool running for miles on the concrete ground
6 feet deep and the rain's still coming down
The TV's playing it all out of town
We're grabbing at the fray for something that won't drown,                                                                      And coming up to you is where I want to be found
