Hold On

Let's flip a switch and then we'll call it straight

Wish that I learned to negotiate

I'd keep your lipstick on my pillowcase, yeah

I'm kinda blind when it comes to this

Even with your help I know I'll still miss

'Cause sugar coating's never been my thing, no

Where do I even begin?

I'm no good at this talking thing

I just wanna give in

And I guess that's why I need watching so

Better hold on to what you find

None of this was by design

I'm a lover without a soul

Yet you still wanna go grow old

Never meant to hold you too tight

Never meant to ruin the night

The things I say and do like

Still no good at this talking thing

Bite my tongue don't talk too fast

'Cause my feelings are slow they don't like to last

For more than a moment and sometimes less, yeah

When I think I'm right turns out I'm wrong

You give me an inch, I'll write you a song

There's gotta be a reason and it's not my charm, no

Where do I even begin?

I'm no good at this talking thing

I just wanna give in

And I guess that's why I need watching so

Better hold on to what you find

None of this was by design

I'm a lover without a soul

Yet you still wanna go grow old

Never meant to hold you too tight

Never meant to ruin the night

The things I say and do like

Still no good at this talking thing

Gotta turn it upside down to see it right side up

Guess I'm a big let down a little too messed up

I hoarder every thought and a little bit too square

Not that you wanted to know, just wanted to clear the air

You love the way I write and hate the way I talk

'Cause I'm a bit too dry and don't make people laugh

No need to call me up, I know I stutter too much

21 years old and, I still got a nervous touch

That's why I write things down, it's not to be profound

It's to get my feelings out so they're not hanging around

I probably should be done so I don't let you in

'Cause any minute now I know I might start stuttering

Better hold on to what you find

None of this was by design

I'm a lover without a soul

Yet you still wanna go grow old

Never meant to hold you too tight

Never meant to ruin the night

The things I say and do like

Still no good at this talking thing

I'm no good at this, I'm no good at this

Still no good at this talking thing
