Ahead of their upcoming debut album, ‘Hold On’ is a superbly crafted rock radio-friendly track and immediately superglues itself to your Most-Played-List-on-Continuous-Repeat!

lyrics

What do I believe in?
I wanna have control
Is there any meaning?
Can I have it all?
How am I supposed to put things right?
Yeah

On the one hand
I’ll believe you
On the other hand
I’ll deceive you
Take me back so I can see clearer
More than before

You play it down
I wanna give you it all
Some day soon
I’ll have nothing to prove

I feel there’s nothing
More to hide from
There’s nothing
Left to hold on

I wanna have the feeling
Wanna have the falls
Wanna keep on dreaming
Wanna lose it all
Who'm I asking, who is right?
Yeah

On the one hand
I’ll believe you
On the other hand
I’ll deceive you
Take me back so I can see clearer
More than before

I draw the curtains
The sunlight blows my mind
It makes me think
Somehow I’ll be alright
I think of days
And moments that went by
Somehow I will know
I’m gonna be alright

I feel there’s nothing
More to hide from
There’s nothing
Left to hold on
You and I
There’s nothing
More to hide from
There’s nothing
Left to hold on

I wanna fall
I want the feeling
I wanna dream
Keeps me believing

I wanna fall
I want the feeling
I wanna dream
Keeps me believing

All the time
There’s nothing
(When everything’s not gone)
More to hide from
There’s nothing
(When everything’s not gone)
Left to hold on
(When everything’s not gone)

You and I
There’s nothing
(When everything’s not gone)
More to hide from
(When everything’s not gone)
There’s nothing
Left to hold on to
You
Oh, oh, oh, oh
There’s nothing
Left to hold on to

Mexican Dogs Liverpool, UK

A Liverpool band with big ambitions and an even bigger sound, the trio of Gaz Wilcox (ex-Bribes), Carl Rooney and Sonny Winder-Rodgers

Tapping into the seminal sounds of T-Rex or Led Zep and re-routing them via the high octane delivery of modern day titans like The Black Keys or Royal Blood, Mexican Dogs balance rock classic and contemporary on an exhilarating knife-edge ... more
