"Hold Me Down" lyrics

"Hold Me Down"

So I guess I must have just been dreaming
When I thought I heard myself say no
And anyway, it looks like no one heard me
So here I go
'Cause when you're in the company of strangers
Or with some strangers you call friends
You know before you start
Just how it's gonna end

And so remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
Any time the pickings look too easy
Hold me down

I can't remember why I like this feeling
When it always seems to let me down
Soon I find I'm searching for the exit
From the ground
And if I think the room is turning faster
And I think the music is too loud
By then I'll have another broken story
Let me out

And so remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom
Hold me down
Or if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Any time the pickings look too easy
Hold me down

Down and I want back up
Down and I've gone too far

Well, I guess I must have just been reeling
When I felt myself begin to fall
I realized I'm bounding down the hallway
Off the walls
And if my bed was standing in the corner
I could just fall into it right now
I know that I'd be starin' at the ceiling
Goin' around and 'round

And so remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom
Hold me down
Or if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Any time the pickings look too easy
Hold me down

Down and I want back up
Down and I've gone too far
Know that I will never be back home
Down and I've gone too far, yeah
