From father to son, the blood runs 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 has come and gone

Yeah, you leave me holding on
In Red Hill Town see lights go down on

I'm hangin' on; you're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hangin' on; you're all that's left to hold on to

The glass is cut; the bottle run dry
Our love runs 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
On to...

We'll scorch the earth; set fire to the sky
We stoop so low to reach so high
A link is lost; the chain undone
We wait all day for night to come
And it comes 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
Lights go out on Red Hill
Lights go down on Red Hill
Lights go down on Red Hill Town
Lights go down on Red Hill.
