I never thought to run away from anything
I was paralyzed
It's ben keeping me locked up tightly
I've been holding my breath to be out again
It wasn't the way they begged
They cried
Took over me
I could never lie
I've been tearing the house up nightly
I've been closing my eyes just to hold it in
Hold me down
It holds me down
We never try to look the way the others do
When were alone
Am I the shiver you feel in the sunlight
Does it begin to remind you of how it died
Are we just afraid of what we know would have to end
It's in your eyes
I can see that it's slowly fading
Is this the part of the world we've been living in
Hold me down
It holds me down
