Days of the New is a post-grunge rock band from Charlestown, Indiana (later relocated to Louisville, Kentucky), formed in 1995. They are best known for the hit singles "Touch, Peel and Stand" and "The Downtown," both from their self-titled debut album. Just one year after the original band's breakup, Meeks had assembled a new Days of the New and recorded a second album. Titled "Days of the New II", and often referred to as Green, this album was released in 1999 and had a variety of different styles of music. Many of the album's songs contained intros and codas to seamlessly carry into the next song.

Hang On To This Lyrics

Days Of The New

Keep me past the gate
I've worn the world without a word
and I don't care too much for what they say
Grip my smothering end
Another day will pass again
Keep My fire alive for I'm not afraid

Can I make them understand
Who in the world would have thought this
God I'll never know your plans
Doin what i got to
what I Got to hang on
cause I'm doin what I got to
what I got to hang on
Hanging on by a thread this is what I got
so hang on to this

Keep me pacified
The light will never see my face
For this must be a better place
Keep them entertained
I've lost the feel, I've lost the pain
For this seems to be a better place

Can I make them understand
Who in the world would have thought this
God I'll never know your plans
Doin what i got to
what I Got to hang on
cause I'm doin what I got to
what I got to hang on
Hanging on by a thread this is what I got
so hang on to this

Maybe you'll find what you seek
if you hold on to truth
then your truth will set you free
