Hold Me Down - Villagers

I’ve seen the down

But there’s something in the way

And I can’t get out

I’m in a room

But I don’t know how I got here

Or what I’m allowed

So come inside

Pick a fight

Ruffle my feather

I’ll be waiting here

Patiently

Wondering whether

Hope is a lie

Hold me down till I can’t understand who I am

Pull me out of this home

Pull me down till your body spills into my soul

The sun goes out

And I need it like I need

A hole in my head

My voice is shut

But I can’t remember

Or sing a word that I said

So count me in

Take me on

Kill all my memory

I can’t believe

Can’t go on

Never be care-free

If hope is a lie

Hold me down till I can’t understand who I am

Pull me out of this home

Pull me down till your body spills into my soul

Then leave me be

Alone to dream

Another Love

Is calming me
