Hold Your Colour Lyrics

Soaking through
Colours that hold us up against the wall
Soaking through
Colours that hold us up against the wall

Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall

(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(Twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)

Soaking through

Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall

Soaking through

(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and)

Ah, she looked into your eyes
And saw what laid beneath
Don't try to save yourself
The circle is complete
We're reaching out and to tell you
Nothing else can touch me

Soaking through

Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall

Soaking through

(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)

Ah, she looked into your eyes
And saw what laid beneath
Don't try to save yourself
The circle is complete

(I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)
(I twisted the knife and)

Fading gently
Soaking through
And starting not to show at all
We're reaching out and to take you
Nothing else can touch me

Soaking through

Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall

Soaking through

Hold your colours against the wall
When they take everything away
Hold your colours against the wall, rinse me (I twisted the knife and opened your eyes)

What is the Meaning of Hold Your Colour?

This song explores themes of resilience and identity in the face of adversity. The repetition of "Hold your colours against the wall" suggests a plea to stay true to oneself even when external forces try to strip everything away. The metaphor of colours signifies individual identity and strength, while "soaking through" and "twisted the knife" introduce elements of pain and revelation. The lyrics convey a struggle for self-preservation and the acknowledgment of deeper truths beneath the surface. With haunting reflections about exposing inner layers and an overarching message of persistence, the song portrays enduring one's essence despite ongoing trials. #Resilience #Identity #Adversity
