[Verse 1] Shut the door soft Let the room go cold Your jacket on the chair Like a story left untold Ash on the floor From a candle burned down low I kept your note in my wallet Till the paper lost its glow [Pre-Chorus] Say it now Say it plain If you’re leaving Leave a name I can take it I can take the sting Just don’t make me Guess at everything [Chorus] Hold me down Hold me down Don’t let go tonight Hold me down Hold me down Till the dark feels light (hold me down) (hold me down) I’m still here I’m still here [Verse 2] Your coffee cup cracked By the sink for a week I still see your mouth move Even when you don’t speak Brake lights wash the wall When the trucks roll by I lock up my heart Then I let it slide [Pre-Chorus] Say it now Say it clear If you want out I’m right here I can take it I can take the cut Just don’t leave me Half in, half shut [Chorus] Hold me down Hold me down Don’t let go tonight Hold me down Hold me down Till the dark feels light (hold me down) (hold me down) I’m still here I’m still here [Bridge] If the ground gives way I won’t run from the fall I’ve been living on splinters Trying to feel at all So say my name Like you mean goodbye Or pull me close And make this night survive [Final Chorus] Hold me down Hold me down Don’t let go tonight Hold me down Hold me down Till the dark feels light (hold me down) (hold me down) I’m still here I’m still here Hold me down Hold me down I can face the truth Hold me down Hold me down If it breaks, I do too
