about

'Better Hold On' is a searing continuation of what Tullara first put in motion with debut single, 'Too Many’. Both a plea for forgiveness, and a stark warning, 'Better Hold On' is a deep and urgent track, and although Tullara's celebrated guitar and earthy vocals are again at the forefront, it also showcases her band at their dark and complex best.
Tullara sings about the mazes of life – the ones we build ourselves, and the ones that trap us unaware. “I didn't want to let you down, I didn't want to steal your fire,” she sings, her voice full of remorse, and we can't help but follow her deeper into the labyrinth.
'Better Hold On' is Tullara’s lead single from her debut EP recorded at Sunshine Recorder Studios, Port Melbourne, with premier female producer and international touring artist Aurora Jane.

lyrics

Baby, baby hold my hand, come over here I'll show you where I stand
Until I don't stand no more, until you know what's in store
You see I'm not what you think I am, although believe me I try best where I can
To be what you wanted or what suited, but in the end I couldn't even prove it.

I didn't want to let you down, I didn't want to steal your fire.
No I didn't want to hurt you so, I didn't want to be a liar
But you didn't have to do those things, you didn't have to pull my strings.
You know it's challenging to convey if you want my love you better hold on to me

Baby, baby don't you cry, come over here you know I'll make you smile
Until I make you cry again, until you ask me where I've been.
You see I try to please everyone, but where does pleasing get me when the day is done?
And I'm the one searching for my rescue, ain't nobody gonna come and save me from it.

I didn't want to let you down, I didn't want to steal your fire.
No I didn't want to hurt you so, I didn't want to be a liar
But you didn't have to do those things, you didn't have to pull my strings.
You know it's challenging to convey if you want my love you better hold on to me

Baby you know it's a shame if you want to stop pulling my hair
Hero I'm just doing my thing, if you want to stop, it won't bother me.
Baby you know it's a shame if you want to stop pulling my hair oh
Hero I'm just doing my thing, if you want to stop, it won't bother me.

I didn't want to let you down, I didn't want to steal your fire.
No I didn't want to hurt you so, I didn't want to be a liar
But you didn't have to do those things, you didn't have to pull my strings.
You know it's challenging to convey if you want my love you better hold on to me
