Allison Crowe - Hold Back lyrics

rate me

A collection of truths

strategically placed

a horde of mysteries and

some fears faced

a raging battle under

calm and serene

often saying what I think

but not often what I mean

I need to see

reality so I

know that it's not just a dream

and I lay my cards out

for everyone

but I never am quite what I seem

I hold back

take hold of dares

as though you're almost done

as if it's the last thing that you'll ever do

and I will always run because

a misguided guide I am

an ignorant lead

I never know what I want

but I'll tell you exactly what I need

Verse 3

and I see you smile

and it makes me nervous

and while I'm laughing the truth is

I don't know how to do this

i have no idea of what's okay

no matter who you are

but you'll never get to know

because I'll never get that far
