Hold Me Down
So I guess I must have just been dreaming
When I thought I heard myself say, "No"
Anyway it looks like no one heard me so here I go
'Cause when you're in the company of strangers
Or just the strangers you call friends
You know before you start just how it's going to end
So remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me down
I can't remember why I like this feeling
When it only seems to let me down
Soon I find I'm searching for the exit from the ground
And if I think the room is turning faster
Then I think the music is too loud
By then I've lived another broken story to let me out
So remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me down
Or if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me down
Down, if I want that part
Down, if I've gone too far
Well I guess I must have just been reeling
When I felt myself begin to fall
I realize I'm bounding down the hallway, off the walls
And if my bed was standing in the corner
I could just fall into it right now
And know that I'd just be staring at the ceiling going round and round
So remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me down
Or if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me down
Down, if I want that part
Down, if I've gone too far
Oh if I never think the room is turning faster
Then I think hey
When I thought I heard myself say, "No"
Anyway it looks like no one heard me so here I go
'Cause when you're in the company of strangers
Or just the strangers you call friends
You know before you start just how it's going to end
So remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me down
I can't remember why I like this feeling
When it only seems to let me down
Soon I find I'm searching for the exit from the ground
And if I think the room is turning faster
Then I think the music is too loud
By then I've lived another broken story to let me out
So remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me down
Or if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me down
Down, if I want that part
Down, if I've gone too far
Well I guess I must have just been reeling
When I felt myself begin to fall
I realize I'm bounding down the hallway, off the walls
And if my bed was standing in the corner
I could just fall into it right now
And know that I'd just be staring at the ceiling going round and round
So remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me down
Or if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me down
Down, if I want that part
Down, if I've gone too far
Oh if I never think the room is turning faster
Then I think hey
