Hanging by a Moment Lyrics

Desperate for changing Starving for truth I'm closer to where I started Chasing after you I'm falling even more in love with you Letting go of all I've held on to I'm standing here until you make me move I'm hangin by a moment here with you Forgetting all I'm lacking Completely incomplete I'll take your invitation You take all of me now I'm falling even more in love with you Letting go of all I've held on to I'm standing here until you make me move I'm hanging by a moment here with you I'm living for the only thing I know I'm running and not quite sure where to go And I don't know what I'm diving in to I'm hanging by a moment here with you There's nothing else to lose There's nothing else to find There's nothing in the world That could change my mind There is nothing else... Desperate for changing Starving for truth I'm closer to where I started Chasing after you I'm falling more in love with you Letting go of all I've held on to I'm standing here until you make me move I'm hanging by a moment here with you

Meaning of Hanging by a Moment

“Hanging by a Moment” captures the intense, almost terrifying, experience of being utterly consumed by love and willing to surrender everything for it. The artist describes a desperate yearning – “starving for truth,” “desperate for changing” – as they find themselves suspended in a fragile state, literally “hanging by a moment” with this person, acutely aware of their own incompleteness and the need to be fully accepted. Despite feeling lost and uncertain (“running and not quite sure where to go”), there’s an undeniable pull, a willingness to leap into the unknown solely because of this captivating connection. The repeated refrain emphasizes the precariousness – “there’s nothing else to lose” – highlighting a complete abandonment of self-preservation in favor of total immersion within this singular, overwhelming feeling of love and dependence, ultimately believing there's "nothing in the world that could change my mind."
