"Hold Me Down"
(Doug Hopkins / Robin Wilson)

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 the 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,
Anytime 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.

If you're at the tail end of the evening,
And Dr. Feel Good comes around,
Anytime 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
Know that id be starin' at the ceiling
Going round 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 that good feeling comes around
Anytime the pickings look too easy,
Hold me down.

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

Know that I'll never be back home.
Down and I've gone too far.
