lyrics

I need someone to hold me down
I need your weight
I need your ground

I need someone to hold me down
I need your weight
I need your ground

I need someone to hold me down
I need your weight
I need your ground

Oh
If you give it to me
I’ll take what I need
Leave you the husk of the seed
The skin of my teeth

Down
I need someone to hold me down
I need your weight
I need your ground
I need someone to hold me down
I need your weight

Wait wait wait wait wait

I know I’m going to die
But I’m not afraid
Not of that
And that’s not a lie

My fear is ancient
Like a rock formation
Formed eras and ages ago

Now it’s strewn with youth faded
And heartbreak

It’s pretty and jaded
pretty and jaded

Professions of devotion
Long since forgotten
That require no emotion
