Hold It Together Lyrics - Mike Shinoda

[Verse 1] 

She said "are you okay?" 

And I'm staring into space 

It's making her nervous cause one thing is certain 

I don't have my head on straight 

We're trying to get through each week 

On two or three hours of sleep 

I said "don't be patient" 

That we're going to make it 

[Pre-Chorus] 

I have to admit that I'm struggling 

They say take it slow 

But the world keeps spinning 

And that I don't control 

And so there I go 

Trying to act normal 

So they won't know that

[Chorus] 

I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling 

I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling 

[Verse 2] 

They say that they sympathize 

I'm grateful they take the time 

But bringing it up at this six year old birthday 

It kinda fucks up my vibe 

We end on an awkward note 

I make the most awkward joke 

Too dark to be funny 

I shouldn't have come it'd be weird to go home

[Pre-Chorus] 

And I'm struggling 

They say take it slow 

But the world keeps spinning 

And that I don't control 

And so there I go 

Trying to act normal 

So they won't know that 

[Chorus] 

I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling 

I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling 

Oh I don't know what else to try 

Pretend I'm in control 

But I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling 

[Chorus] 

I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling 

I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling 

Oh I don't know what else to try 

Pretend I'm in control 

But I'm just trying to hold my shit together 

Together darling
