Are you sure it's not 'threshold' rather than 'fresh hold'?

I checked it and found that the lyrics listed at Google Music Play are full of errors, including your "fresh hold".
But the one at https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/moby/slippingaway.html looks perfect.
The line in question is "The threshold is breaking tonight". It probably means the established first step (in people's relationships, as I interpret it) is crumbling down.

Song lyrics sometimes mean something. Sometimes they are just a collection of words that sound nice together. I suspect in this case it's the latter...
