Hold Me Down
Alone I won't last long
'Cause you've been there holding me up
I'm gone, automaton, a bag of bones
'Cause you were the soul and the blood
When I call you pretend you're not there
Oh, I get a little bit scared
I'm wrong more often than not
And I know that you care
Baby, hold me down
No, I don't want it to hurt no more
I need your love and I can't let go
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear
And then I promise that I'll be here
Oh no, the world's goin' under
And we sit here twiddlin' our thumbs
Our love is the least of our problems
But you say one word and I jump
And I fall, let the chemicals flare
Ooh, I get a little impaired
But I'm just an animal like anyone
So I know that you care
Baby, hold me down
No, I don't want it to hurt no more
I need your love and I can't let go (can't let go)
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear (got my dear)
And I promise that I'll be here
I won't be afraid of dyin'
You're not livin' if you're hidin'
This must be someone's nightmare
If we wake up, we'll burn brighter
Baby, hold me down
No, I don't want it to hurt no more
I need your love and I can't let go
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear (got my dear)
And then I promise that I'll be here (I'll be here)
(I won't be afraid of dyin')
(You're not livin' if you're hidin')
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear
And then I promise that I'll be here
'Cause you've been there holding me up
I'm gone, automaton, a bag of bones
'Cause you were the soul and the blood
When I call you pretend you're not there
Oh, I get a little bit scared
I'm wrong more often than not
And I know that you care
Baby, hold me down
No, I don't want it to hurt no more
I need your love and I can't let go
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear
And then I promise that I'll be here
Oh no, the world's goin' under
And we sit here twiddlin' our thumbs
Our love is the least of our problems
But you say one word and I jump
And I fall, let the chemicals flare
Ooh, I get a little impaired
But I'm just an animal like anyone
So I know that you care
Baby, hold me down
No, I don't want it to hurt no more
I need your love and I can't let go (can't let go)
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear (got my dear)
And I promise that I'll be here
I won't be afraid of dyin'
You're not livin' if you're hidin'
This must be someone's nightmare
If we wake up, we'll burn brighter
Baby, hold me down
No, I don't want it to hurt no more
I need your love and I can't let go
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear (got my dear)
And then I promise that I'll be here (I'll be here)
(I won't be afraid of dyin')
(You're not livin' if you're hidin')
So save me from the ride
Just give me all that you got, my dear
And then I promise that I'll be here
