Hold Me Down

I found a letter that said, "I'm sorry that"

"You were asleep when I wrote these words down"

"You'd think I'd ought to be used to that by now"

Stay for a few of those late night episodes

Missed opportunities, and "I don't care's"

There's not a lot that I feel obliged to share

Or talk about

I'll have my brother stop by this Saturday to

Pick up my things, just make sure you're not there

This may sound bad, and don't take it the wrong way

I love you, however

You hold me down

You hold me down

You hold me down

You hold me down

You're the echoes of my everything

You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night

You're the laziness of afternoon

You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom

How will I break the news to you?

How will I break the news to you?

Cancel our dinner with Max and Coraline

Feed Jacky's gerbil and try to stay clean

We'll talk it over after I've had some time

Alone to sort it out

You hold me down

You hold me down

You hold me down

You hold me down

You're the echoes of my everything

You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night

You're the laziness of afternoon

You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom

You're the leaky sink of sentiment

You're the failed attempts I never could forget

You're the metaphors I can't create

To comprehend this curse that I call love

How will I break the news to you?

How will I break the news to you?

How will I break the news to you?

How will I break the news to you?

How will I break the news to you?
