Holding Back
The phone
Rings around four A.M.
And I know it's not my friends
I know (the means to it?)
Alone
Every time I don't win
All that she wants is skin
And every time I give in
No!
There's no need to speak in code
I think that by now we know
The way this is gonna go
You're holding back
You're holding back
You're holding back
You're holding back
She
She works the graveyard shift
And my heart's been chewed to shit
But she feels like a first (day????)
Damn
Cause Sharla won't call me back
And Rachel can't get attached
So I gotta start from scratch
Love
This shouldn't be so hard
And that's gonna leave a mark
Love will tear us apart, yeah
You're holding back
You're holding back
You're holding back
You're holding back
It's none of my buisness
It's none of my buisness
If something that you said
Is piquing my interest
Cause you wanna have fun
Cause you are the big kid
You want a cold drink
And you want to be kissed
It's none of my buisness
It's none of my buisness
Has anyone told you
You look like an actress?
Pouting your big lips
And showing your midriff
And I'm (not your way?)
So I'm gonna forget
You're holding back
You're holding back
You're holding back
You're holding back
(end)
