Momma said you were bad news

Daddy said to leave you alone

Grandma said you're evil with two sharp horns

Pa-pa preached, said you were after my soul

I thought that I was bigger than you were bad

I just had to try you on my own

You tricked me real good, almost had me fooled

But, I'm on to you and you should know

Something, something

Got a hold of me, it just won't leave me alone

I was out there looking

But my search is done, now I'm going home

'Cause this something, something

Got a hold of me, it just won't leave me alone

This something, something

Is better than you, so I'm moving on

You made yourself look like an angel

So, I fell deeper into your lies

You gave me nice things, you knew just what to say

I couldn't see, ‘cause I had you all on my eyes

But you forgot to tell me the cost of being lost

Asked around, I didn't like the price

So tonight, when you do the count in your hell

You won't see me there, don't be surprised

Something, something

Got a hold of me, it just won't leave me alone

I was out there looking

But my search is done, now I'm going home

'Cause this something, something

Got a hold of me, it just won't leave me alone

This something, something

Is better than you, so I'm moving on

My momma used to say

Something's got a hold of me

Oh, yes it did

I said something's got a hold of me

I went to a meeting one night

And my heart wasn't right

Something's got a hold

I said something's got a hold

I said something's got a hold

Excuse me, pardon me

As I grab my things and go

(I'm outta here) I'm outta here, get outta my way

I wouldn't wanna have to run you over

Excuse me, pardon me

As I grab my things and go

(Been messing with you for way too long)

Been messing with you for way too long

I think it's time I hit the road

Sometimes, I get this feeling (It's got a real good grip, it's got a real good grip)

I can feel it in my head (It's got a real good grip)

I can feel it in my feet (It just wont leave me alone)

And when I get real good (It's got a real good grip)

I can feel it all over me (It's got a real good grip)

Oh, I can feel it (It's got a real good grip)

What is just to happen only inside (It just wont leave me alone)

And it's working it's way on the outside (It's got a real good grip)

It worth of energy (It's got a real good grip)

It's gonna demand my right

It's gonna give my soul right (It just wont leave me alone)

And this broken heart of mine is gonna be right

'Cause something's got a hold on me

Something's got a hold on me, yeah

Something's got a hold on me
