From father to son
     The [bad word] thin
     See faces frozen still
     Against the wind

     The seam is split
     The coal face cracked
     The lines are long
     There's no going back
     Through hands of steel
     And heart of stone
     Our labour day
     [bad word] and gone

     Yeah you leave me holding on
     In Red Hill Town
     See lights go down, I'm...

     Hanging on
     You're all that's left to hold on to
     I'm still waiting
     I'm hanging on
     You're all that's left to hold on to

     The glass is cut
     The [bad word] dry
     Our [bad word] cold
     In the caverns of the night
     We're wounded by fear
     Injured in doubt
     I can lose myself
     You I can't live without

     Yeah you keep me holding on
     In Red Hill Town
     See the lights go down on
     I'm hanging on
     You're all that's left to hold on to
     I'm still waiting
     Hanging on
     You're all that's left to hold on to
     Hold on to

     We'll scorch the earth
     Set fire to the sky
     We stoop so low to reach so high
     link is lost
     The chain undone
     We wait all day
     For night [bad word]      And [bad word]      Like a hunter child

     I'm hanging on
     You're all that's left to hold on to
     I'm still waiting
     I'm hanging on
     You're all that's left to hold on to

     Love... slowly stripped away
     Love... has seen its better day

     Hanging on
     Let's go out on Red Hill
     Let's go down on Red Hill
     Let's go down on Red Hill Town
     Let's go down on Red Hill
