lyrics

There are some things I wanna ask you about
Like as a boy, how’d I do with bouts
Of bad dreams, when you heard me scream?

'Cause for me, it’s just a metaphor
And I'm sent here to ask you more
Questions than you can answer

Like, when you heard, were you freaking out?
Underneath, while my light was out
Did you pray for it to turn back on?

Or did you see it as a seed of doubt?
And the terrors that I screamed about
Would come back, but not a dream?

You were right to think that maybe I was dumb
And you though it was a show I was putting on
Hold me down
Hold me down until I calm

As you see me from the telephone
Do my eyes flicker off and on
Do I grab my knees,
And roll my tongue?

Like the trees in the backyard
With a tale, but beneath the bark
Do they sway, or will they fall?

You were right to think that maybe I was dumb
And you though it was a show I was putting on
Hold me down
Hold me down until I calm

An antique fell apart
I hope I’m still sleeping hard
If I scream, don’t wake,
Dont wake me

You were right to think that maybe I was dumb
And you though it was a show I was putting on
Hold me down
Hold me down until I calm

Hold me down
Hold me down until I calm
