[Verse 1]

My heart gets lost like a message

My head is on the clouds and I don't get it

And so, I'm fashionably numb

Sometimes it helps to forget where we come from

[Verse 2]

Out of the mire, we were torn from, remember

Out of the fire again but I'm an ember

I'd hold a banner for you but it's upside down

You got a question or two but I'm tongue-tied now

[Chorus]

Don't try to follow me, I would

Hold you down if I could

Make you the enemy, I would

Let you down

Don't try to follow me, I would

Hold you down if I could

Make you the enemy, I would

Let you down

[Verse 3]

I took a ride on the champagne

You took a flight over San Fran Bay

We watched, it's all misunderstood

Your heart was warm like a brother's should

But then the gallow gave way

Sometimes they call after you

But you say

[Chorus]

Don't try to follow me, I would

Hold you down if I could

Make you the enemy, I would

Let you down

Don't try to follow me, I would

Hold you down if I could

Make you the enemy, I would

Let you down

[Bridge]

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

[Chorus]

Don't try to follow me, I would

Hold you down if I could

Make you the enemy, I would

Let you down

Don't try to follow me, I would

Hold you down if I could

Make you the enemy, I would

Let you down

[Outro]

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you

I hold you down, I hold you down, I hold you
