"Holding Me Back" lyrics

"Holding Me Back"

Take off your hands, you're hurting me
This is a scary place to be
I miss the high I felt before
We hid in silence feeling small

Turn around and let me feel the ground beneath me

Hate the way you paint me black
Kick me when I'm feeling bad
You will always hold me back
And it fucking drives me mad
Holding me back, holding me back
How it fucking drives me mad
Painting me black and then you're pushing me back
How it fucking drives me mad

I can't go out they're watching me
I'm just a guest but I can never leave
The waves are crashing underneath
Just let me breathe

Hate the way you paint me black
Kick me when I'm feeling bad
You will always hold me back
How it fucking drives me mad
Holding me back, holding me back
How it fucking drives me mad
Painting me black and then you're pushing me back
Oh how it fucking drives me mad
Holding me back, holding me back
Holding me back
Painting me black, pushing me back
Making me mad

Yeah you sold it to me easy
Now I'm paying for it all
Yeah you gave it to me stealing
Now I'm trapped inside these walls
Yeah I'm trapped inside these walls
I'm trapped inside these walls

Hate the way you paint me black
Kick me when I'm feeling bad
You will always hold me back
How it fucking drives me mad
Holding me back, holding me back
How it fucking drives me mad
Painting me black and then you're pushing me back
Oh how it fucking drives me mad
Holding me back, holding me back
Holding me back
Painting me black, pushing me back
Making me mad
